See the letter from NYC Council Education chair Mark Treyger and signed by 33 other Council Members to the Mayor below, where they call for "common sense savings" by eliminating unnecessary spending on contracts, administration, and testing to prevent damaging cuts directly to school budgets next year, which would lead to even larger classes and the loss of school counselors and other critical services.
If you'd like to speak out against wasteful spending on contracts and consultants, or on other matters you can speak at tonight's Panel for Educational Policy meeting by signing up between 5:30 PM and 6:15 PM here.
