Today, a group of 7th graders studying French cooked crepes with Chef Raffaniello in preparation for the Chandeleur, the French crepe holiday. They enjoyed flipping the crepes while holding a gold coin for good fortune, according to tradition. They went on to fill the crepes with jam, rolling them or folding them in an elegant “suzette” style. At the end, they each enjoyed the fruits of their labor and look forward to sharing this tradition with the entire community next week! #collegiatenyc #crepes #collegiatemiddleschool #collegiateonline

In second grade, students study and visit all five boroughs of New York City. This morning, they showed off what they have learned at the New York City festival. They sang New York City songs—including “New York, New York”—and presented facts that they had learned during their studies. After the performance, students and their parents went to the classrooms to test their knowledge by playing New York City centric games the boys had created. #collegiatenyc #newyorkcity #collegiateonline
