Institute for Collaborative Education
The Institute for Collaborative Education (also called ICE) is a college-preparatory public secondary school (grades 6–12) in the Gramercy Park neighborhood of Manhattan in New York City near Stuyvesant Town–Peter Cooper Village. Part of the DOE's District 2, the school is known for its small class sizes and progressive educational values. The school is philosophically opposed to high-stakes standardized tests. It is a member of the New York Performance Standards Consortium and is "given a waiver from the chancellor's uniform curriculum." As a Consortium school, ICE's students are exempt from taking most Regents exams. Instead, students present "PBAT" (Performance-Based Assessment Task) projects at the end of each semester to panels of teachers, parents, and outside community members. Until recently, ICE was a screened school, requiring middle school applicants to submit an essay and undergo an interview. After the COVID-19 pandemic, the school changed to a lottery system, but with two "priority groups": Diversity: 50% of the school's seats go to students who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch Sibling priority: Students with a sibling currently in 6th through 11th grade at ICE have priority
