What Urban Dove Team Charter School III does
Mission
Urban dove team charter schools delivers an innovative sports-based, health, and fitness-centered curriculum designed to develop students into healthy, successful adults who are economically, socially, and emotionally independent. Our educational model energizes, educates, and empowers young people within a safe and positive environment grounded in high expectations and shared responsibility. Udtcs serves overaged and under-credited students who face limited educational options and are in critical need of targeted academic support, structured engagement, and positive pathways to success. Urban dove team charter schools are in the four boroughs: midwood neighborhood in brooklyn, melrose neighborhood in the bronx, harlem neighborhood in manhattan and astoria neighborhood in queens.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
The school opened its doors in the fall of 2012 in the bronx with a rigorous academic program and a highly structured and supportive school culture. While the school is comprised of students from many backgrounds, it is uniquely suited to meet the needs of at-risk students who have been previously disengaged from school.through a sports, health, and fitness curriculum, layered with a career and technical program, the school is expanding its reach to energize, educate and empower youth. The school provided education to approximately 94 students in grades nine through twelve during the 2024-2025 academic year.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $1.9M to $1.1M (−44%).
