It was such an honor to be present as @DOEChancellor and @NYCMayor announced this amazing expansion of G&T for our school community. So proud of our parent leader, Michael Garcia, for representing @PS56Queens and speaking on behalf of our parents. @District27NYC @JennCarry_on
Today we move to end the era of scarcity. Through this expansion of G&T into every district we are providing more opportunities for accelerated learning while providing an equitable, fair process to identify the students who will excel. This expansion is just the beginning!

“If we cannot finally agree as a city in the middle of a pandemic that we need a plan to lower our class size, I don’t know where we’re ever going to get to it,” UFT President Michael Mulgrew testified at a City Council hearing on the bill on Oct. 27.

What a great Aha Moment this student had when she realized that characters ask themselves Tough Questions during really tough moments! It’s her first day back in the school building and she’s keeping an eye out for those Reading Signposts @KyleneBeers! @PS56Queens @District27NYC

Readers need a book, not a lexile level. They need time, not a stop watch. They need choice. They need to discover what they love. They need to dive into books and come up gasping for air so they can dive back in.
