Columbia Secondary School

The Columbia Secondary School for Math, Science & Engineering will serve as a model school in a new joint venture between Teachers College and the government of the Dominican Republic to improve that nation’s educational system. The president of the Dominican Republic, Leonel Fernández, announced the venture during his World Leaders Forum visit to Columbia on Sept. 25.

Though years away from submitting college applications, the sixth and seventh graders at the Columbia Secondary School can get a taste of the University’s trademark education.

Since city schools opened this September, Harlem’s P.S. 125 has played host to a Columbia-sponsored public magnet school.
