  • Education Collaborative's Communications Plan For
    July 24th, 2020 Chancellor Richard A. Carranza NYC Department of Education Tweed Courthouse 52 Chambers Street New York, NY 10007 RE: Proposed DOE Communications Plan for Immigrants Dear Chancellor Carranza, The New York Immigration Coalition’s Education Collaborative is concerned about the New York City Department of Education’s (DOE) capacity to communicate with immigrant families and English Language Learners (ELLs) about the possible transition to blended learning models during the summer and into the 2020/2021 school year. To ensure immigrant families and ELLs have agency during the transition to blended school models, the Education Collaborative has outlined below pragmatic steps to improve school-based communications and central DOE capacity to do effective outreach to Limited English Proficient (LEP), low literacy, and low digital literacy households. The COVID pandemic has laid bare that DOE schools have a lot of work to do to become trusted places to share information and support for immigrant families. It is our hope that the DOE will employ these recommendations. While it is imperative that the DOE implement the following communications plan during the 2020 summer and into the 2020/2021 school, these multi-pronged approaches for communicating with immigrants should be implemented well beyond the pandemic. Recommendations for School-Based Communications: 1) Schools should communicate with parents through continuous touchpoints (phone calls, texts, social media, emails). Schools and educators should be instructed to communicate with immigrant families through a succession of different forms of communication, to ensure at least one source of communication will reach all families. Schools and educators should be instructed not to rely on sending messages through the instructional platforms, as this communications vehicle is the most challenging for hard to reach families.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Document: MINOR LEAGUE
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL IN THE CITY: AN URBAN BALLPARK AND REDEVELOPMENT AROUND THE HOBOKEN TERMINAL. Matthew Robert Ponsi Master of Architecture, 2009 Directed By: Professor Matthew Bell, School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation This thesis explores the necessity to develop the area around the Hoboken Terminal into a regional attraction. The site is targeted as a “focal point for development” to become “more of a destination” and a “gateway” for the city. Although boasting ideal accessibility and panoramic views of Manhattan, the area exists as a gap along the Hudson River waterfront. It should be a social destination, a Transit-Oriented Development, and a link between the two expanding neighborhoods. Anchoring the plan will be a minor league ballpark just south of the Hoboken Terminal in Jersey City. This ballpark will serve as a year-round magnet for regional activity and as a cultural attraction adjacent to associated mixed use, residential, and recreational development. It will explore how a stadium should define and be defined by its urban environment and the role it should play in the context of the city.
