Ray Domenico gets it.Teachers union is the most powerful political entity, as acknowledged by Cuomo. Both Adams and Cuomo won’t defund community schools which wasted $700M (de Blasio). It’s now an entitlement for nonprofits, and not helping students. nypost.com/2025/07/19/opi…

Mamdani campaigns on affordability but as Nicole writes, his city-run grocery stores are unlikely to be realized because of “pesky” details. Do Zohran fans even care? nytimes.com/2025/07/23/opi…

The SHSAT is simply a multiple choice test - no name, no gender, no race, no face, no life story. Students who earn the 4000 highest scores get their choice of 8 specialized schools. One of the purest form of meritocracy still standing in 2025. chalkbeat.org/newyork/2025/0…

“Should we exempt people from the law because they’re illegal immigrants? That’s ridiculous,” ~Robert Holden Main St Flushing is lined with these unsightly vending. Adds to the sidewalk congestion. It certainly looks like prime target for ICE. nypost.com/2025/07/31/us-…

Outrageous! DOE defends spending $750K in 2025 at a single restaurant bec it’s MWBE vendor (Minority and Women-owned Business Enterprise). Catering for a Bklyn middle school — w/enrollment of 286 and 40% chronic absenteeism, exceeded spending limits. amny.com/news/nyc-brook…

NYC's DOE NYC Public Schools still hasn't published its annual data on school enrollment and demographics for 2024-25. It used to be in April and last year, it was July. We are now a month from starting the 2025-26 school year, and still nothing. Mayor Eric Adams Chancellor Melissa Aviles-Ramos

Is the NYS Education Department hoping this incompetent screw up in the biology regents will go away? These scores could impact student's course placement and is on their academic permanent records. We need to hear fair remedies. John C. Liu Senator Shelley Mayer NYS Assembly Member Michael Benedetto
