The Global Learning Collaborative

The Global Learning Collaborative is a small to medium-sized high school in Manhattan's Financial District, known for its interdisciplinary curriculum focused on global citizenship, humanities, and the arts. The school offers a unique World Dance program and opportunities for study abroad, aiming to broaden students' cultural perspectives. It provides a range of academic challenges, including 12 Advanced Placement courses and College Now classes, with a focus on developing a strong writing foundation. The school boasts an excellent graduation rate of 96%, which is at the 75th percentile citywide, and a solid college enrollment rate of 71%, above the citywide median. Parents consistently report high satisfaction with the school, praising the supportive and caring nature of the teachers and staff. While the school is recognized for helping students with varied skill levels succeed and graduate, some academic performance metrics, particularly certain Regents exam pass rates, are below citywide averages, and some students have expressed a desire for more advanced academic challenges. The school fosters a generally positive environment, though student feedback on conflict resolution and physical altercations is mixed.
