The report, spearheaded by then School Board member Tom Jackson and Superintendent of Schools Mayo, proposed a comprehensive approach to these spaces, that aside from their homes, New Raven's children spend the vast amount of their time at. Upon close examination it was clear that City school buildings were in a miserable state of repair, were expensive to maintain, were energy inefficient and did not even approach meeting the programmatic needs of our students. They were not good places for ou r children and did not reflect a prioriti7~tion of their interests. Accordingly a vision Lo create an entirely new physical planL thaL would support out· students, instructors, staff and the community was articulated. That vision was enacted into law with the adoption in May 1996 of an Ordinance creating the Citywide School Construction Committee. A companion piece of legislation dedicated the proceeds of the sale of tax liens into a trust fund, that along with an incredibly generous State School Construction Program, enabled the construction to commence. Today New Raven's public school physical planLs Lands second l.o none in the United States and supports a myriad of academic, recreational, public health and community activities. Indeed the breadth and vision of the construction program can only be matched by P.W Haven School Change, the chool reform initiative launched in 2008 that is dramatically improving the academic outcomes and life successes of our kids. Together these two initiatives stand as testament to the primacy that ew Haven places on its young people. phone 203.946.8200 /ax 203.946.7683 '11,;. .,...m,,. im,_;.n ;.I},, ...!. of}onn;n, Iimoirw>. • II..J.nto/ J;..p &J...I. 1 BEFORE AFTER 10 ·f1......,.,o{N..

Today, the Citywide School Construction program stands as a national model for its massive scope, innovative financing and high degree of community involvement. - The School Construction program was launched in 1995 as a mechanism by which the City could repair its aging school ...... infrastructure while marginalizing the expense to taxpayers . To date, as a result of this innovative program and with no federal assistance, the City has commitments of $406.5 million toward the renovation or replacement of schools. An additional $295 million is planned to renovate an additional 21 schools over the next 10 years. The program includes both new and "gut-renovation" school projects. The General Accounting Office recently reported that one­ third of the nation's schools need extensive repair or replacement. In New Haven, a survey found that of the City's 42 city owned school buildings, 41 percent are at - least 50 years old . New Haven is moving aggressively to solve its problems while many municipalities are just com­ ing to grips with the extent of deterioration in neighborhood - schools built decades ago.

  • Assessing School Choice As a Mechanism for Ethnic, Racial, And
    Assessing School Choice as a Mechanism for Ethnic, Racial, and Socioeconomic Integration in New Haven Public Schools A Senior Essay in American Studies by Shoshana Davidoff-Gore Advised by Professor Crystal Feimster Completed in fulfillment of the intensive year-long course, AMST 493 and 494 April 18, 2017 Introduction Twenty-five percent—this is the minimum percentage of white students that must be enrolled in a New Haven public school for that school to be considered integrated, according to standards set in the aftermath of Sheff v. O’Neill, the 1996 Connecticut Supreme Court decision which ruled that continued segregation in Hartford public schools was unconstitutional. The ruling and its legislative outcomes set a precedent for the entirety of Connecticut—if school segregation was unconstitutional in Hartford, it was also unconstitutional in New Haven, and New Haven could take advantage of state money set aside to help facilitate desegregation efforts. The Sheff ruling is one in a long slew of Supreme Court decisions, court orders, and public policies dating back to Brown v. Board in 1954 that have attempted address the issue of school desegregation, which, at this point, has been on the forefront of national education reform for nearly seventy years. The subject is far from obsolete; however, the major tropes of school integration— Brown v. Board, the Little Rock Nine, mandatory busing, intervention from the National Guard— seem to be relics of the Civil Rights Movement. Many school systems across the country, including those in Connecticut, are currently combating segregation in schools that is comparable to, if not worse than, the segregation that families, activists, and politicians fought so hard to eradicate from the 1950s, to the 70s.
