About Our Academy

Welcome to Vertex, home of the lions! 

We’re building a first-of-its kind, IB-for-all academy in The Bronx that provides students with pathways for upward mobility and prepares them for the responsibilities of republican self-governance, guided by the four cardinal virtues of courage, justice, temperance, and wisdom. 

Our students have agency: every day they make choices about the people they want to be, the lives they want to lead, and the society they want to build. It is our sacred duty to give them the knowledge most worth having, to teach them how to think critically, to expose them to a rich diversity of viewpoints, and to provide the space for them to explore and create.

Vertex Partnership Academies is proud to be an International Baccalaureate World School authorized to offer both the Diploma and the Career-related Programmes.

  • Ensure all assessments support ongoing learning and provide timely, relevant, and appropriate feedback to students.
  • Contribute positively to the collaborative culture of the academic team and Vertex staff.
  • Enthusiastically participate and contribute thoughtfully in professional development.
  • Participate in community-based projects and school field trips.
  • Proactively communicate with families about student learning.
  • Supervise students’ individual Personal Projects, Extended Essays, and service requirements.
  • Lead an advisory group of students.
