Admissions

Admission to HSFI is highly selective. Students must complete an application to the Board of Education, take the school's exam that includes an art aptitude test, and submit a portfolio. Students are not expected to have formal training in the arts, and many students apply who have little drawing abilities. For prospective students, the school offers pamphlets in most junior high schools and several open house events during the year that include a mock school day with 15-minute classes.

History

Founded in 1926. In March, 1926, Mr Mortimer C. Ritter, with Miss Jessie R. Dutton and Mr. Federick G. Bruck came to the third floor loft of the Greeley Arcade Building and with two classes, one in dressmaking and the other in garment cutting, organized what was to develop into the Central Needle Trades High School.

Auditorium murals

These murals were painted between 1939 and 1940 by Ernest Fiene. and have landmark status. Construction of the murals (and the school building) were part of the US federal government's Works Progress Administration (WPA) program. The murals "[portray] in dramatic and moving fashion the long generation of hope and despair, and the high standard of social and industrial accomplishment in the needle trades."
