Dr. Izquierdo’s Legacy
Dear Families,
Welcome to our school. This school is the fruition of a lifetime of work as a doctor. This school has been my dream for many years, and now it is a reality for our families and their children. It is a great privilege for us that you have brought your child to us to educate and care for, and we look forward to years of working together to free our scholars from the bonds of poor education, poor health, and poverty. Together, we will guide them on the road to success and self-fulfillment helping them become happy and productive members of our society. It will not be an easy journey, but together we can do it. We can be a part of a dream come true in the South Bronx.
Welcome to my dream,
Dr. Richard Izquierdo MD, FAAFP, Founder
Dr. Izquierdo was not the best student, but he worked hard to become a doctor. He never wanted to leave the community he was brought up in. He wanted to make the healthcare system in the community better.
One way he committed to doing so was by creating a school to help children be successful and graduate college. In particular, he wanted to focus on health and science careers. Our school exists today because of Dr. Izquierdo's dream.
Upon graduation our scholars will be prepared for the highest levels of college achievement, gainful employment as certified health care professionals, and a commitment to serve others as they pursue rewarding lives and respected careers for themselves.
