In 1994, Fenway won charter status from the state, but chose instead to lead reform efforts within the Boston public school system. The school's co-directors worked with system officials to create the Boston Pilot School model, which gave Fenway control over its educational programs, staffing, and budget. Today, Fenway is a 9th-12th grade high school widely recognized for its success with urban students, most of whom go on to college after graduation. Fenway's community is comprised of about 270 students and 35 staff. Fenway students are grouped into houses, each of which has its own faculty and student support staff.
Students typically remain in the same house throughout their four years at the school.
Three times a week, students also attend Advisory class, which focus on students' academic and interpersonal needs. The Fenway Ventures program, involving students at all grade levels, helps students learn to interact effectively with people beyond school and learn how to succeeding college or a chosen field of work.
