The name Arbor reflects our desire to grow students like a tree through holistic education so that they may:

Our school body consists primarily of Dominican and Haitian students, extending across a wide range of socio-economic statuses. Twenty-five percent of our student body receives tuition assistance, which is primarily funded by our community English program.
