Letter to King & Regents about inBloom Inc. from CM Robert Jackson, Class Size Matters, Learning Disabilities Association, AQE and CEJ

See the letter sent to Commissioner King and the Regents last week from Council Member Robert Jackson, chair of the NYC Council Education Committee,  Class Size Matters, the Learning Disabilities Association of NY, Alliance for Quality Education, and Coalition for Educational Justice.  We point out that since four states have now defected from inBloom because of privacy concerns, New York is the ONLY participant in this project sharing confidential and personally identifiable data of students statewide.  We also summarize some of the troubling revelations from our Brooklyn Town Hall.  We will post a reply if and when we receive it.
