Avenues: The World School is a international system of for-profit private schools for pre-K-12th grades. The first campus opened in September 2012 in the New York City neighborhood of Chelsea. Avenues plans to open 20 or more campuses in other cities around the world over the next decade. The system is planned to be an integrated "learning community" with a shared vision, curriculum, technology, professional development of faculty and oversight by a centralized headquarters team.
