We Need Your Support

Opportunity Charter School for Specialized Learning (SSL) is a new K - 5 free public charter school proposed to open in Community School Districts 3, 5, or 6 in Manhattan. If approved by SUNY, SSL will be New York City’s first free public charter school dedicated to serving 100% students with moderate to severe learning disabilities. SSL plans to open in the fall of September 2019 with enrollment for kindergarten and first grade.

Showing your support of SSL will move our proposal one step closer to becoming a reality for hundreds of NYC families in need of a free high-quality special education school for their children.
