Councils, with the change that each CEC will now include one elected parent of a child in the city Department of Education’s District 75 program for children with significant learning disabilities.
“Really, one of most beautiful things about the city is that we’re constantly changing and evolving,” he continued. “And this year, I want to see new faces and hear new voices. New perspectives are what truly moves us forward and brings innovation and creativity into our schools. I’m not content with just the status quo. I encourage every parent to consider this critical opportunity and take the leap into one of these leadership positions.
Additionally, Banks said, for the first time, each CEC will include one parent of a child in a District 75 school or program. That change was required by legislation passed by Albany lawmakers last year. Those running for a CEC post aren’t allowed to accept endorsements from political individuals or groups including unions, advocacy groups and current CEC members.
