About Us

City College Magnet School of the Arts (CCMSA) is a 6-12 early college school. With the City College of New York and the Early College Initiative, our primary partners, we have designed a learning community that is supportive and safe, as well as rigorous and challenging. CCMSA students graduate with as much as two years of college credit. The arts are the conduit through which students develop the skills to become problem-solvers, critical thinkers and analytical learners. CCMSA is committed to ensuring that our students succeed not only in college but as valued members of their families and community.

Pocketful of Problems: Episode 3: Stress with Rob de la Rosa

In our final Pocketful of Problems episode we sit down with Rob de la Rosa from ‪@inthelivingroompodcast‬ and talk about, well, everything. We cover so many topics with our main focus landing on stress,

Rob brought up friends and asked us how we feel when we go to our friends when mental health concerns. We discuss and examine how we feel about going to our friends with issues and why that differs from how we feel when friends come to us with the same problem.

We end with some advice on how to encounter problems when we come fact to face with them. And that was, for sure, one less problem for your pockets!
