Hope Academy, a 9-12 alternative high school program of the Northern Region Education Services Commission, offers a chance for success to the students of Passaic HIgh School. It is our goal to provide academic course work, credit recovery and real world experiences to students who have not met with success in a traditional high school setting. A student to teacher ratio of 12:1 allows for more individualized attention to maximize student learning and provide tools to overcome their situational and environmental challenges that brought them to Hope. Hope Academy works in conjunction with students, families and the Passaic High School staff to create a network of support and multiple pathways to a diploma.
Hope Academy is committed to protecting the school community and has recently tested all drinking water supplies for lead. Learn more about our lead testing and view the test results here.
