Our Mission

The mission of the Academy of Urban Planning is to help students use their leadership abilities to achieve academic success with the support from educators, parents and guardians working together across racial, ethnic and cultural divides to forge a lasting spirit of community. We strive to be the school where students and parents are welcome; where teachers and staff work collaboratively for the benefit of students and parents are engaged as partners with the school to provide an exemplary education for our students. We also strive to allow students to acquire the academic and social tools they need in order to pursue their goals by stimulating their interests in learning, discovery and self-expression.
