Huge $14 million contract for mental health professional development for pre-K staff. While training in social-emotional development and family engagement is important, it should be secondary to compensating pre-K staff at levels that allow us to recruit and retain people to work with our youngest students. The De Blasio DOE too often prefers professional development to more substantive actions.

Article here explains how the De Blasio administration still has not recognized the need to provide parity between DOE and non-DOE staff. https://www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20160107/civic-center/de-blasios-15-wage-for-pre-k-staff-doesnt-level-playing-field-critics
