History

The school lies on the site of the East New York Vocational High School. The school was built on the former site of pumping stations for the Ridgewood Reservoir. It was constructed coincidental with the construction of Conduit Boulevard.[2]

In the late 1980s, it converted to its present mission. Its first graduating class was in 1990.[3]
