    VIA EMAIL: [email protected] Carmen Farina Chancellor New York City Department of Education 52 Chambers Street New York, NY 10007 Dear Chancellor Farina: I am writing you regarding the recent violation of my rights as a public school parent with children in the New York City Public School System. I am the mother of Mymoena Davids, a 10th grade student attending La Guardia High School and Eric Davids, a Kindergarten student attending P.S. 106-The Parkchester School in the Bronx. On Friday morning, I attended the P.S. 106X Parent Association election meeting. Marian Martinez, the District 11 District Family Advocate, administered the elections. I first met Ms. Martinez six years ago when I was Co-President of P.S. 160X-The Walt Disney School. At that time, I filed a complaint against Ms. Martinez for her refusal to help the parents secure our Title 1 funds from the Principal. After filing my complaint, we finally received the Title 1 funds. (Unfortunately, the funds the principal never distributed in previous years were not recouped because they were already spent by her.) At Friday's meeting, I was nominated by a parent as a candidate for President of the Parent Association (PA). I spoke after another parent, who had nominated herself. During my turn to address the parent members, I began speaking about my experience as a former PA Co-President and School Leadership Team member six years ago. Continuing with my experience and background as an active parent, I began speaking about my experience for the past few years as a full-time, unpaid volunteer founder and President of the New York City Parents Union.

Middlesex County Assistant Prosecutor Christopher Kuberiet described the June 25 attack on Divyendu Sinha as a "wilding spree for no apparent purpose" during a hearing in September that led to the five teens being charged as adults, according to a report in the Star-Ledger. The Star-Ledger obtained audio recordings of four of five closed family court hearings. Click here to listen. Julian Daley, 16, Christian Tinli, who turned 18 in September, Cash Johnson, 17, Christopher Conway, 17, and Steven Contreras, 17, are accused of the attack on Sinha as he walked with his family in his Old Bridge neighborhood. Sinha, 49, worked at CSI as an assistant professor in the computer science department from 1990 to 1999. Kuberiet said authorities obtained time-stamped messages between the alleged assailants sent within an hour of the fatal attack, saying how much they enjoyed the assault, and discussing another similar attack the next day, the Star-Ledger reported.

    The Research Alliance for New York City Schools Executive Summary February 2011 The Middle School Teacher Turnover Project A Descriptive Analysis of Teacher Turnover in New York City’s Middle Schools William H. Marinell The Research Alliance for New York City Schools Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development Acknowledgements While there is one author listed on the title page of this report, many individuals contributed to this report and to the analyses on which it is based. James Kemple, the Executive Director of the Research Alliance for New York City Schools, provided invaluable guidance about the design and execution of the analyses, as well as thoughtful and thorough critique of drafts of this report and its accompanying Executive Summary and Technical Appendix. Jessica Lent, Janet Brand, and Micha Segeritz, all Research Alliance colleagues, provided critical analytical and data management support at various points. The members of our larger research team – Richard Arum (NYU), Aaron Pallas (Teachers College, Columbia), Jennifer Goldstein (Baruch College, CUNY) and doctoral students Amy Scallon, Travis Bristol, and Barbara Tanner – contributed constructive feedback throughout the analytical process. Jim Wyckoff, Sean Corcoran, and Morgaen Donaldson offered candid, extremely valuable critique of the study’s technical and substantive merits, as did the New York City Department of Education’s research team led by Jennifer Bell-Ellwanger. Members of the Research Alliance’s Governance Board identified findings that might resonate with various stakeholders in the New York City public education system. Research Alliance staff members Lori Nathanson, Tom Gold, Adriana Villavicencio, and Jessica Lent helped revise this report and its accompanying documents.

  • Studentsfirstny Analyzes Hidden 2015-16 Teacher Evaluation Ratings
    BURYING THE EVIDENCE: StudentsFirstNY Analyzes Hidden 2015-16 Teacher Evaluation Ratings At a recent meeting, New York City United Federation of Teachers (UFT) President Mike Mulgrew crowed that 97% of city teachers are effective or highly effective according to the 2016-17 evaluation results. The problem is, there has been no public review of the results from the 2015-16 school year, let alone the newer results the union boss touted. A deliberate attempt to de-emphasize teacher evaluation results While the New York State Education Department (SED) produced an analysis of the results in March and posted it on the website, there was no public release, and no mention of the analysis in any Board of Regents meetings. Five months later, again with no press release, SED posted researcher files with the 2015-16 data, away from view of most parents and education stakeholders. Several weeks later, some data was posted in a more parent-friendly format, but a query for New York City results produces an error message. SED displayed an alarming lack of transparency by failing to properly release a detailed analysis of 2015-16 teacher evaluation ratings. Some might argue that these ratings have less meaning since there’s a moratorium on the use of student test scores and evaluations are in a transitional state. In this paper, StudentsFirstNY argues the opposite: it is because evaluations are in a state of transition that we must closely analyze the results to have an informed conversation on what is working and what is not. Regents Chancellor Betty Rosa recently told POLITICO New York, “We’re going to take stock in the next month or two before the Legislature comes back,” but she had already concluded that the moratorium must be extended, without any public review of the latest results.
