About Collegiate Academy-math-personal Awa

Collegiate Academy-Math-Personal AWA is a charter middle school in Brooklyn, New York, serving grades 6 through 8. The school enrolls 95 students and runs a student-teacher ratio of 11.9:1 — a staffing level that creates smaller classes and more consistent access to teachers than most middle schools offer.
