About ICARE

Colonie Central High School ICARE began as an initiative where both faculty and students could have a common forum to express and affect change for the better in our school community. As it stands in a basic form, ICARE is a character building program that uses five cores values to shape our decision making. The ultimate goal is that students and adults in the Colonie community understand and enact the ideologies of: Integrity, Community, Accountability, Respect, and Empathy as defined through the many interactive teachings of ICARE character and community workshops.

SHIP logo

ICare is proud to support the SHIP Program (Supporting Humanitarian Initiatives & Projects) as its charity of choice for the 2024-25 school year.

The SHIP Program is an innovative initiative at the Albany County Correctional and Rehabilitative Services Center. It repurposes unused space, resulting from a declining inmate population, to provide transitional housing for homeless individuals. This clean, independent living environment helps residents get back on track, offering them access to essential services, such as mental health support and resources for securing permanent housing.

By supporting SHIP, ICare aims to make a tangible difference in the lives of individuals in need, helping them transition to stability and independence.

Pathways to Heroes

Colonie Central High School and its student-run ICare group are expanding the Hill of Heroes, a tribute to military personnel and first responders, envisioned by John Lawler (Class of 2016). Established in the spring 2016, recent additions include a retaining wall, a seating area, and a commemorative stone from the Class of 1965. Community members can now honor their loved ones by purchasing commemorative stone pavers to be added to the memorial.
