Elementary and Middle School Newsletters
Icahn Charter School 3 has been extremely busy implementing STEAM into our everyday learning. Our students and teachers have become expert coders during our Robotics classes. During these classes, students are connecting technology and coding with the NYS Science Curriculum. During this year, we have been working closely with the New York Hall of Science to enrich our science program. There will be a Family Science Day sponsored by the museum on May 11th, where families can engage in STEM activities including engineering challenges.

Our Mission
The mission of Icahn Charter Schools is to use the Core Knowledge curriculum, developed by E.D. Hirsch, to provide students with a rigorous academic program offered in an extended day/year setting. Students will graduate armed with the skills and knowledge to participate successfully in the most rigorous academic environments, and will have a sense of personal and community responsibility.
