Meet the Staff
Welcome to the new school year and our professional learning community. My name is Yesenia Peralta, Principal of Brooklyn Democracy Academy. I look forward to collaborating with faculty, administrators, alumni, students, and parents to ensure the success of the students of today, and the work of the students of tomorrow.
The academic and social emotional successes of our students is a priority of all stakeholders as we plan for the 2020-2021. Rest assured that our planning teams are working everyday to ensure that the greatest academic opportunities are afforded to all of our students through out this school year.
Please feel free to contact me with questions or concerns regarding your scholars progress via email yperalta8@schools.nyc.gov or via phone (646) 483-0757
