Mayor Mike Spano recently announced the approval of a 20-year lease to rent the Frank T. Biondi and the Ames School Buildings on Hawthorne Avenue to create a new media and production magnet school for our Yonkers Public School Students. In partnership with Great Point Studios, owner and operator of the new Lionsgate Yonkers, the 10,000 square foot property will be used to provide specialized educational opportunities for students and offer them the pathway to a career in the film industry. The new school will hold approximately 500 students from Grades 6 to 12 and focus primarily on media and performing arts. The school is expected to open in 2024.
