HVA is one of the best Charter schools in East Harlem. All the teachers and staff members that I have encountered have been truly amazing to me. Students are pushed to be independent thinkers. When they make a mistake they are not immediately suspended and sent to detention.

It was great that HVA gave my daughter a laptop during virtual school. She loves art and dance class and her teacher always answers my calls and texts. Love HVA!
