About the Learning Program

There are currently over 180 PROSE schools in New York City. While all of them are collaborative not all are teacher-powered. We are in the process of working with PROSE leaders to identify the teacher-powered PROSE schools. Conservatively, we estimate that there are 80 plus teacher-powered PROSE schools and quite possibly many more.
