  • Open Letter for Asian-American History Education in NYC Public Schools
    Open Letter for Asian-American History Education in NYC Public Schools April 26, 2021 Dear Mayor De Blasio and Chancellor Meisha Porter, The recent surge in anti-Asian hate crimes and violence has highlighted the woefully inadequate education pertaining to Asian American history that our children receive. As parents of Asian- American students in NYC public schools, we urge you to take immediate actions to establish and promote a curriculum that is inclusive of Asian-American history and culture. Education is among the best antidotes to racism and must start in the earliest grades. The future of our city and our nation depends on what our children learn in school today. Asian-American children must know their history in this country so they can be proud of their heritage and stand up to discrimination and hate. Their classmates who are not of Asian descent must also learn about Asian-American history to better understand and respect the racial and ethnic background and identity of their Asian-American peers. Very few NYC students are taught about the numerous ground-breaking contributions Asian-Americans have made to this country and our city, or about the hardships, exclusions, violence, and killings that Asian- Americans have endured over the centuries in this country and our city. The stories of how Asian-Americans have stood up against racism and discrimination and fought to realize their dreams must be told. Asian-American history is American history. It is critical for all NYC students to see Asian-American role models, historical figures, writers, artists, scientists, and contemporary leaders included in the school context, including but not limited to curriculum, classroom walls, library books, lesson slides, and performances.

Working with the public and pri- Nvate sectors, New Visions develops programs and policies to energize teaching and learning and raise the level of student achievement. The Center for School Success (CSS) at New Visions for Public Schools was founded in 1999 to document and disseminate innovative educational practices demonstrated by New Visions’ schools that hold promise for increas- ing student achievement throughout New York City. Over the first year, CSS concentrated its initial documentation efforts on educational practices of immediate concern to educational reform, both locally and nationally. During the 2000-2001 school year, CSS documented five promising practices at 11 exemplary school sites. The success of these schools should serve as examples that New York City public schools, serving the full range of students in New York City, can work. CSS hopes to continue to identify and disseminate a broad array of practices and relat- ed materials in order to support on-going systemic efforts to reform the New York City public schools and improve the educational opportunities available to the city’s schoolchildren. Dual Language programs, which have grown considerably in the past 15 years, integrate language minority and lan- guage majority students and provide instruction in English as well as a second language, usually the native language of the language minority students.
