Welcome to Central City Value High School

Central City Value High School's mission is to establish and support free, high quality, values-based charter schools for students historically underserved by traditional public schools. We help students to make a difference for their society and their world. 
 
Grounded in our values, our rigorous academic programs challenge our students to be a part of a rich learning environment. We have high expectations for our students and we do everything we can to ensure our students reach these expectations. Join us as we create exceptional schools, exceptional communities, and exceptional lives.

With the support of friends and generous donors, we’re on our way to achieving our goal of $5.8 million in private gifts toward the total cost of the project. As always, we rely on our committed leaders.

Value Schools Impact Report

Value Schools Impact Report

It is hard to believe but Value Schools has been educating students for over twenty years. Dr. Jerome Porath, our founder, opened Downtown Value School in 2002. Central City Value High School opened in the fall of 2003 with 88 ninth grade students. And, of course, our story continued as we opened Everest Value School in 2014 and University Prep Value High School in 2015.
