The Arts at HERO

We know that students have to explore more than just their career interests as they grow into adulthood. We have a range of art teachers on our faculty who teach classes in drama, visual arts, dance and music.

HERO High School’s Work-Based Learning program (WBL) is a comprehensive program that aims to effectively prepare our students for the world of work. Our Work-Based Learning program will offer tiered opportunities that guarantee every student can be included. Although our program is open to all students from the five boroughs of New York City, our typical student is from the Bronx and the majority of our work is to help the people from their neighborhood.
