The New York City Department of Education has approved the first-ever advertising and media public high school: The High School for Innovation in Advertising and Media. For short it will be called I.AM High, which … speaks for itself. (Are you guys fucking kidding?)
I.AM High School will be situated with two other small high schools on the Canarsie High School campus. For the next several months it will be recruiting students and staff, developing a curriculum, and building outreach.
The school’s mission is to equip students for ad and media careers with a strong portfolio and “an impressive resume.” (Printing I.AM High, 4.0 under “High school education” — guaranteed whiplash effect.)
