The City-As-School is a public high school in the West Village of Manhattan that focuses on experiential learning through internship.
Adam Horovitz (King Ad-Rock of the Beastie Boys) attended the City-As-School. Horovitz, the son of playwright Israel Horovitz, joined the Beastie Boys in 1982 (at the age of 16) after their previous guitarist stepped own. Horovitz's own band, the Young and the Useless, were already opening for the Beastie Boys and covering some of their songs.
