Benjamin N. Cardozo

Our school's mission is to be a school of excellence AND a school with a heart. Known for its academic achievement, Cardozo recognizes that a brilliant mind devoid of compassion is lacking the humanity that defines success. Therefore, we promote character by creating a community in which each individual is valued and respected. Central to our mission is the goal to design, implement and operate programs throughout the school reflective of the specific needs and unique challenges of our school community as defined by all its students (General and Instructional Support Services Students, ELL, at-risk and advanced) and faculty, staff, parents and the broader community at large. In all we do, we maintain high expectations for everyone.
