So watched the CECD2 meeting last night. Some observations: Sonal Patel asking why everyone is obsessed with screens and sorting is interesting. Both her kids went to a highly competitive gifted & talented program that used tests for entrance. Her older daughter goes to

Holy moly.... I just noticed that Kaliris Salas Ramirez is running for CEC4. Isn't she the same woman that Mark Levine dumped because she was constantly tweeting content extremely offensive to the Jewish community?

I've watched Gavin at these meetings for a few years now. He hates anyone who advocates for their kids. Any parent that wants the best for their kid is racist. Any CEC member that disagrees with him is racist. Any DOE employee that disagrees with him is racist. Every white

Just watched the replay of CECD2's meeting this month. First, I have to commend them for having their videos up so quickly. A lot of CECs don't. It was an odd meeting. So many weird moments. But two of the weirdest... Allyson Bowen asked about middle school lottery cutoffs

It's unbelievable that respected newspapers continue to promote the lie that there is still testing for kindergarteners in NYC!!!! DeBlasio eliminated the test years ago during COVID!!! Now all you need to apply for a G&T school is a teacher's recommendation and EVERYONE GETS
