My Students

Recognized as a ”non-traditional academic haven for struggling students,” Our school is distinguished by its curricular focus on experiential learning through internship. We are built on the idea that all children learn differently, some learn by seeing some by hearing, others by doing. Education at CAS is individualized, helping young people to reach their full potential. We serve 600 students who have transferred from over 200 educational institutions from all over New York City and New York State. Often, these students are overage and under-credited with over 10 percent homeless, living in temporary shelters, or in foster care; safety transfers–students; young mothers and fathers utilizing on-campus childcare services; and teens leaving residential psychiatric facilities and correctional facilities. Our school helps provide a diverse group of committed interns to businesses, health centers, and organizations across all five boroughs, breaking down barriers and prejudices against the city's hardest-to-reach young people while providing them with real-world skills to help jumpstart their future.

My Project

Music is one of the most important components in human culture. It helps us express ourselves, understand each other, connect, celebrate, heal and communicate. At our school, we support young musicians development as songwriters and performers through internships and sessions in professional recording studios. We are excited to take this opportunity to connect with students' families by inviting them into the studio to watch and participate in their students' music making. Our partner, Black Lodge Recording, will facilitate 6 studio sessions that our students will invite their families to in order for them to see the magic of music. This creates a unique opportunity for families to see their children at their best and happiest. It will be a beautiful celebration of the MAD Academy program and how music can strengthen bonds and academic success! It also gives parents a new way to think about learning and a classroom beyond the walls of the physical school building.
