THE CHARTER SCHOOL IS COEDUCATIONAL AND NONSECTARIAN AND COMMENCED INSTRUCTION ON SEPTEMBER 10, 2012. false false 3254977 4301248 The Icahn Charter School provides a comprehensive K-8 public education based on the Core Knowledge Sequence, a nationally recognized curriculum based on the concept that every child should be equipped with a core foundation of knowledge so that they are armed with the common knowledge base necessary to compete in any setting. The Schools curriculum is comprised of the following: The English Language Arts program uses direct, explicit, systematic and sequential phonics instruction and decodable literature to promote early reading success. Students read award-winning fiction and non-fiction literature. The mathematics program provides a curriculum that covers units beyond the conventional curriculum and is an integral part of the instructional program. Math instruction is additionally supported by a subject specialist and/or math consultant. Demonstration lessons, peer coaching, and professional development ensure that teachers benefit from the latest research on the teaching of all subject matter. Students in ELA & Mathematics needing to strengthen their skills, as determined by baseline testing and teacher judgment are afforded small group instruction forty minutes each day, five days a week as well as additional instruction through after-school tutoring and Saturday Academy. The learning and integration of Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics in our STEAM Program is used as access points for guiding student inquiry, dialogue, and critical thinking around content knowledge. The Icahn STEAM Program provides a strong foundation of integration at its core, which means that each of the aforementioned curricular areas is both taught in its' own right, as well as connected through Common Core Standards and assessments. Science is an integral part of the implementation of E.D. Hirsh's Core Knowledge curriculum. The Icahn students, through project-based learning and hands-on experiments, learn the importance of science in their daily lives and in their future. With one-on-one computing in place it can be said that technology, coding, and robotics are weaved through all aspects of the teaching/learning at Icahn. In Social Studies classes, students learn about the continents, ancient Greece and Rome, exploration, colonialism, slavery, etc., with an emphasis on multiculturalism through the curriculum. The subject matter is enhanced by the use of technology, guided virtual trips, project-based learning, debates, guest speakers, visiting authors, trips to museums and historical sites. Classical and contemporary art and music are studied and enhanced through the use of art & music consultants, attendance at live performances, displays of student visual artwork, ballroom dance performances, & student performances of Shakespeare. 3254977 true true false false false false false false false false true false false true true true true false true false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false true 0 0 42 true false false false false false false false false false false X 7 6 false false false false false true false true true false false true true true true true true true true false X RICHARD SANTIAGO 7187168105 1525 BROOK AVE BRONX NY 10457 X GAIL GOLDEN-ICAHN CHAIRPERSON/PRESIDENT 1.0 7.0 X X 0 0 0 JULIE CLARK GOODYEAR SECRETARY/TRUSTEE 4.0 56.0 X X 0 304561 16879 SEYMOUR FLIEGEL TRUSTEE 1.0 7.0 X 0 0 0 ROBERT SANCHO TRUSTEE 1.0 6.0 X 0 0 0 KAREN MANDELBAUM TRUSTEE 1.0 6.0 X 0 0 0 EDWARD J SHANAHAN TRUSTEE 1.0 7.0 X 0 0 0 BETTY WALKER TRUSTEE/PARENT REPRESENTATIVE 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 IRENE MARCH TREASURER 1.0 6.0 X 0 0 0 JEFFREY LITT SUPERINTENDENT 7.0 53.0 X 0 388224 11000 DANIEL GARCIA DEPUTY SUPERINTENDENT 7.0 53.0 X 0 248317 11000 RICHARD SANTIAGO DEPY SUPERINTENDENT OF FINANCE 7.0 53.0 X 0 257870 34990 BRIAN GEELAN PRINCIPAL 40.0 0.0 X 165425 0 21072 165425 1198972 94941 1 false true false 0 209333 209333 STATE & LOCAL STATUTORY STUDENT FUNDING 900099 4301248 4301248 4301248 6461 6461 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 MISCELLANEOUS INCOME 900099 950 950 950 4517992 4301248 7411 0 0 0 0 331334 331334 0 2027356 1560307 467049 56802 45447 11355 269111 206332 62779 186568 149416 37152 0 1679 1284 395 27774 21239 6535 0 0 0 29070 27285 1785 2304 1762 542 208514 147121 61393 135931 103947 31984 0 331563 167818 163745 11532 6514 5018 0 0 857 484 373 0 194373 154630 39743 60028 45904 14124 STAFF DEVELOPMENT 141867 141867 STUDENT SERVICES 108088 108088 REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE 32944 25192 7752 FOOD SERVICE 7803 5449 2354 6297 3557 2740 4171795 3254977 916818 0 0 0 933442 1173867 80358 142020 16102 14361 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 70001 139100 1255694 908905 114559 346789 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 139527 190333 1353989 2006470 388936 543524 0 0 144431 103406 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6069 198790 539436 845720 X 814553 1160750 0 0 0 0 814553 1160750 1353989 2006470 346197 X false true X true false X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 99040 3944 95096 916479 717733 198746 240175 187228 52947 346789 DUE FROM SCHOOL DISTRICT 124333 OTHER ASSETS 66000 190333 0 OBLIGATION UNDER CAPITAL LEASE 29199 DEFERRED RENT LIABILITY 169591 198790 X 4898596 380604 380604 4517992 4517992 4552399 380604 380604 4171795 4171795 FIN 48 FOOTNOTE - PART X, LINE 2 THE CHARTER SCHOOL RECOGNIZES OR DERECOGNIZES A TAX POSITION BASED ON A "MORE LIKELY THAN NOT" THRESHOLD.
