Our testimony at today’s budget hearings is posted here and below. We are very concerned about the continued shrinking of the teaching staff and the huge proposed cuts to the capital plan, both of which will make the goals in the new class size law difficult if not impossible to achieve.
We will start an email campaign on these issues soon; stay tuned.
Social Networks:
Sign here to urge NYC to implement a real, multi-year strategy to lower class size, as the law intends, without exempting up to half or more of all students.
