Charles Polizano P’18 started at Poly Prep in 2005 after graduating from Brooklyn College with a bachelor’s in computer science.

Charles also led the growth of computer science instruction at Poly, evolving the program from a few elective offerings to multiple options for students, including AP and advanced courses. Charles’ vision also helped design Poly’s Makerspace, where students are encouraged to explore, create, and collaborate.
