Mayoral Control
Background
- School Board system was dysfunctional (although some School Districts were working very well)
- State law gave the Mayor control of our school system in 2003
- Two system wide re-organizations in five years
- While the Mayor holds teachers and principals accountable, he and the Chancellor are not accountable to anything
- Using the largest PR department in the history of DoE, the Mayor is misleading the public with questionable statistics
- The law has been interpreted in ways not intended by the State Legislature
- Autocratic approach to school governance that has alienated parents, teachers and administrators
- Business model applied to education -- principals as CEOs
- Call your State Assembly Member and Senator and tell them the law needs to include checks and balances
- Go to the forums hosted by the NYC Parents Commission on School Governance
