The newly
constructed Sheridan Preparatory Academy opened its
doors in September 2004. The school is part of the City
School District of Albany's comprehensive facilities
plan to create smaller, more personal learning spaces
where students have the technology necessary to succeed.
The school is
proud to be able to provide a range of programs and
services to take care of children's academic needs and
provide health and wellness services on-site. These
services include a school-based health center through
the Whitney M. Young Health Center and a
mobile dental health services program through a
partnership with St. Peter's Hospital and Ronald
McDonald House.
