  • Audit Report: John Dewey High School Make-Up/Credit Recovery Programs
    THE STATE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT / THE UNIVERSITY OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK / ALBANY, NY 12234 EXECUTIVE DEPUTY COMMISSIONER (518) 473-8381 E-mail: [email protected] March 23, 2018 Mr. Phil Weinberg Deputy Chancellor Division of Teaching and Learning 52 Chambers Street Room 320 New York, NY 10007 Dear Mr. Weinberg Enclosed is the State Education Department’s Final Audit Report of John Dewey High School. As you are aware, the audit assessed whether make-up and targeted recovery credit courses administered at John Dewey High School were in compliance with New York State Education Department regulations and New York City Department of Education requirements. The audit findings are troubling. Far too many students received course credit they shouldn’t have and that is unacceptable. NYCDOE must be accountable for ensuring make-up and credit recovery programs in all its schools are properly administered and provide the education students need to succeed in life. Anything short of that is a disservice to students. Staff training and responsible oversight of credit recovery programs are imperative to the programs’ success in providing students a second chance to earn the diplomas they deserve. Your response to our audit indicates that NYCDOE does not recognize or appreciate the seriousness of the audit findings. NYCDOE must address the findings of this audit and immediately start work on implementing its recommendations so no more students are cheated out of the education they deserve. As always, I am available to discuss the audit with you further. Sincerely, Elizabeth R. Berlin Executive Deputy Commissioner Enclosure c: Chancellor Betty A.
