The borough has fewer than 2,500 charter school students spread across two schools — the John Lavelle Preparatory Charter School, located on the Teleport campus in Bloomfield, which offers classes from
kindergarten through high school under different umbrellas, and the New World Preparatory Charter School, a middle school in Port Richmond.
BVP's charter was recently renewed, and
under its renewal plan it will grow to approximately 2,400 students in seven
schools spanning
kindergarten through high school.
