  • My heart is racing with love. Urban Academy is my high school! Class of '93! Go Willie! Nicely put. I wish I could be in every one of those classes again and again. UA made me who I am and IS the reason I have an MFA from NYU - when I wouldn't have even finished HS had I not found Urban. I love you Ann, and Becky and every UA teacher and student. There is no place like Home!!

  • what a shitty place. that is no way to run a school. where's the discipline? hmm?

  • Simply wonderful. Encouraging and hopeful.

  • Impressive!

  • Best high school ever.

    

  • This. So much this.

  • Great video. I am so grateful I found Urban and proudly say they helped mold me into who I am today.

  • This is a fantastic video. Thank you so much.. I shared it on the Education Now! Facebook page and my own wall.
