City-As-School. MAD Academy Description

City-As-School is one of NYC's oldest progressive, alternative, transfer public high schools, with a curriculum based on external, experiential, project-based education and internships supported by mentors who work in the real world.

MAD Academy (MAD) at City-As is a program founded by teacher Maria Krajewski to provide high quality music making opportunities guided by NYC’s professional musicians. MAD is a pre-professional training initiative where students, teachers and mentors collaborate for direct training in design, arts, and music under the guidance of NYC’s top creative industry professionals.

As a transfer high school, we are the last stop for students 16 to 21 years old who are at risk of dropping out or aging out of the system.
