New Covenant Charter School is located in the Arbor Hill section of Albany. Opened to serve urban, at-risk students, its educational initiatives include Direct Instruction (DI) curricula for reading, language/writing and math, and school uniforms. This is one of the 10 schools exempted by SUNY from mandated union representation for charter schools with enrollments over 250 students in the first year. On January 27, 2004, the State University Board of Trustees approved a five-year renewal of the charter of the New Covenant Charter School.
