New York State’s Legislature will vote on whether to extend mayoral control of the City’s public schools on April 1, following Governor Kathy Hochul’s proposal to extend the control for another four years.
In Brooklyn, legislators, teachers and parents have mixed opinions on what should be done, with some saying new Mayor Eric Adams deserves a chance to improve the city schools, while others, including Central Brooklyn’s Community Education Councils, say the system should be dismantled and replaced with an independent governing body.
