New York City Schools Chancellor David Banks is doubling down on his plan to change the Department of Education. JohnBDias reports.
Banks did his homework and knows the facts. He's giving the department he inherited a failing grade.
Banks said his main priority is changing the way kids learn how to read. He wants to use a proven phonics-based system, so each student can read by third grade. Banks said he knew going into the job that wrong-headed programs have resulted in a staggering 65 percent of minority students graduation without being able to read.
"They're passing on them like that, just putting them to the side, 'Let's get them out of here,'" said Eric Camacho.Many parents think the new approach will only help. But they say the department should also concentrate more attention on traditional resource rooms.
