I.S. 117X Joseph H. Wade Academies

The W.A.D.E. Way

 
At Wade Academies, we recognize that parent partnership is the key element to student achievement and pride ourselves on forging strong relationships with students, parents and the community alike. In order to facilitate the building of these relationships, we have organized our school into academies, each serving a distinct portion of our students. These academies have been named after different universities in the New York metropolitan area, as our goal is to provide our students with the skills necessary for college and a successful future.

Our goal is to empower all students to become independent problem solvers, critical thinkers, and effective communicators.
