Public school parents’ Bill of Rights proposed; YourNabe.com Bronx Times Reporter News:
"“As a public school parent, I know that our city can do more to bring our public schools to the top of the class,” DeBlasio said. “With the first day of school just a week away, there is no better time to make increasing parental involvement a top priority. As public advocate, I will work to build on the successes of mayoral control and implement much needed reforms.”"
DeBlasio’s 10-point “bill of rights” calls for “honest, respectful two-way communication with local school representatives and Department of Education officials,” “timely and accurate information about opportunities available to students,” and “access to comprehensive and thoughtful information about the performance of children’s schools.”
