New York City opened 24 new public schools on Thursday, the first day students returned to the classroom for the new academic year — almost half of them in Brooklyn.

The schools, which accommodate grades K through 12, are located across the city. The new buildings come outfitted with a variety of new learning spaces, including reading and speech resource rooms, art and music classrooms, science labs and prep rooms, special education classrooms, libraries, gyms, and auditoriums.

The buildings bring more than 11,000 new seats to the public school system, NYC Mayor Eric Adams said, adding that the buildings will have “state-of-the-art” technology.

“With modern and flexible spaces, state-of-the-art technology, science labs, music rooms, sensory gyms, and more, these new schools are going to be incredible spaces for students and staff alike, will play a crucial role in fostering a sense of well-being for our children, and will help us build a safer, more affordable, and more livable city,” the mayor said.

NYC School Construction Authority (SCA) president and CEO Nina Kubota said the agency’s mission is committed to “create and maintain safe, nurturing and inspiring” learning environments.

“These new schools are more than just buildings, they are vibrant, dynamic spaces where young minds can explore, create and grow,” Kubota said. “They also underscore the SCA’s dedication to providing equitable access to quality education for all New York City children, highlighting the importance of investing in educational infrastructure as a foundation for student success.”
