Now in its eighth year of operation, Harlem Link has established an impressive array of academic and organizational achievements. The school’s charter has been renewed by the State University of New York, recognized as one of the nation’s most rigorous charter school authorizers. As of this writing, the school is in the midst of its application process for another charter renewal, which would extend the Harlem Link’s charter to 2018.
Harlem Link has consistently outperformed other Harlem public schools on state exams since first administering them in 2008.

For the past two years, Harlem Link has had a perfect passing rate on the fourth grade New York State Science Test. (Note: fourth grade is the only elementary grade in which the state tests science achievement.)

Harlem Link’s Response to Intervention (RTI) program, in place since 2007, has helped the school dramatically lower the number of students scoring at the lowest level on state tests.

The longer students are enrolled at Harlem Link, the better they fare on New York State tests.

Finally, Harlem Link students have gained admission to some of the most competitive middle schools in New York City. In addition to a number of high quality charter schools, our alumni attend such elite district middle schools as Mott Hall, Mott Hall II, and the Columbia Secondary School. We remain committed to our alumni through their college graduation.
