Welcome to Trey Whitfield School
Since 2005, our fully renovated five-story building in East New York, Brooklyn, has stood as a symbol of excellence, offering a comfortable and inspiring learning environment. With a commitment to inclusion, our ethnically diverse student body reflects the vibrant community.
Our dedicated, professionally trained staff maintains a character-based, academically rigorous curriculum that emphasizes literacy fundamentals and fosters a deep love of learning. Our high attendance rates reflect our unwavering commitment to the highest standards.
At Trey Whitfield School, we focus on building confidence that extends beyond academics, teaching morals, accountability, leadership, and character development. Our positive atmosphere, enhanced by teachers' love and care, creates an environment where intimidation or disrespect is not tolerated. Uniforms promote fairness, and respect is a core value instilled in every student.
Founded over 40 years ago by Ms. Janie C. Whitney, driven by her passion for children and supported by A.B. Whitfield, an educator with 35 years of experience, Trey Whitfield School stands as a testament to their dedication. Originally called Bethlehem Baptist Academy, the school changed its name in honor of their son, Trey Whitfield, who tragically died in a boating accident just days before graduating from high school.
