One of the worst schools in NYC... It's called ICE (Institute for Collaborative Education) cause every girl is as dumb as ice, as cold as ice, and as brainless as ice. If you think you'll get a girlfriend here, just leave. If you are a guy, expect to have to do drugs to be 'cool'.
Common phrases you'll here from ICE kids. "Jeffrey" "stop being offensive.... you spic" "I can say nigga cause I'm 1/16th black."
What to expect from school: racism towards every other race besides blacks, sexism to men, heterophobia.
I wrote this and I'm a black lesbian, btw... I regret ever going to this school. If you are even a white guy here, please leave you'll hate your existence and gain an inferiority complex.

Get the St. Andrews Catholic Education Center mug.1)Positive Connotation:
The state of getting and or becoming "educated" therefore giving you the chance to succeed in life.
At it's most basic level, in the US, graduating from high school, or getting a General Equivalent Diploma. (Hey, if you don't have a diploma, eventually even Micky D's won't want you anymore if more qualified applicants show up. And if you can't read, write, or do basic artithmetic, you can't do a lot of things.)
However, in the United States, most "educated" people have been to a two or four year college and have some form of degree, thus making them elgible for at least slightly better jobs.
For this reason, many adults tell their kids to stay in school and get a good education, so they can be sucessful in life.
2)Negative connotation:
A system run by the state that screws you over, where you learn nothing of importance and must take tons of standardized tests while enduring a dumbed-down curriculum, the main focus being to keep the children just educated enough that they can grow up, take jobs, and become cogs in the wheels of the system, in what is inevitably an "assembly line" approach. In short, the Man's way of stifiling young creativity and brainwashing the youth of the nation.

2) "Kids in the US often hate the education system, and feel it stifles their individuality and creativity. However, in third world nations, many kids would love the chance to go to school, even if it's crappy and state-run, because they're stuck working all day without minimum wage."
