Imagine Yourself Here.

From the decks of the Staten Island Ferry,

To the top of the Empire State Building,

CITYterm students experience every side of New York City…

…inside and out.

Imagine a week where Tuesday’s double block is spent reading poetry underneath the Brooklyn Bridge.

And Thursday’s after-school activity involves re-designing unused space on the NYC Waterftont.

Your classmates come from across the country; 14 states and 22 different high schools.

And with their help,

you will start to see the

world through a

different lens.

Imagine spending Saturday night on Broadway, catching a critically acclaimed show like “Newsies” or “Peter and the Starcatcher”

And then rooting for the home team on Sunday afternoon.

Our unique, experience based curriculum encourages you not only to study a topic…  

…But then do something with what you’ve learned as well.

You will, quite

literally, take your classroom ideas to

the street.

And find connections

to your curriculum

on every city block.

Your teachers are no longer confined to the classroom, as you’ll learn from real New Yorkers every day.

You’ll meet people ranging from New York City councilwomen….

… to award winning authors.

CITYtermers with Amy Waldman, author of The Submission

Your classmates become your peers in co-learning, there to celebrate your successes and help you through challenges.

Whether it is after walking the island of Manhattan tip to tail

(11 miles total)

Or making a major presentation to your parents, faculty and friends.

CITYterm will give you the chance to learn, explore and grow in new ways.

And if you choose to take advantage of it, that’s a decision you’ll never regret.

“I came into CITYterm expecting just to learn about New York City, but left with a whole new outlook on learning and life.
