A double sited school, it serves grades 9–12. Brooklyn College Academy was ranked second (tied with Benjamin Banneker Academy) for highest graduation rate in the borough of Brooklyn, with 97% of students graduating on time. It provides children with an early college program, which ensures that they get college credit while they are still in high school. HistoryBrooklyn College Academy, founded in 1986 in a partnership between the then Board of Education and Brooklyn College, served as an alternative school—a program which was created to help older high school students that have not done well in other settings. The school no longer serves this purpose and is a normal high school in the school system. Almost all of the school's graduates go on to attend college, two-year or four-year institutions. The current principal of Brooklyn College Academy is Nicholas Mazzarella, who began his career at Hostos-Lincoln High School in the Bronx and came to Brooklyn College Academy in 2005.
