“#NYC parents learning that the adults who run the system always put children\u2019s needs last<\/strong>”

Parents of public-school kids are now stuck fighting both the teachers\u2019 union and City Hall \u2014 and realizing that the adults who run the school system don\u2019t really care about the kids.<\/p>\n

The city Department of Education can\u2019t figure out how to make remote learning work; only drastically lowered standards \u2014 e.g., no attendance requirements even as a quarter or more of students are chronically absent at many schools \u2014 allows it to pretend success. <\/p>\n

The United Federation of Teachers continues to resist a full reopening of in-person classes, with UFT boss Mike Mulgrew now complaining that the city track-and-trace program is inadequate.<\/p>\n

It sure looks like he\u2019s merely being more polite than his peers in the Windy City, where teachers over the weekend voted to defy district orders to return to school. Of course, Mulgrew\u2019s already issued at least one public strike threat in the battle over reopening.<\/p>\n

City Hall seems to be giving him more excuses: City teachers got to jump to the head of the vaccine line, but Team Blas can\u2019t say how many have gotten jabbed. The union won\u2019t even prioritize teachers who are conducting in-person classes for the vaccine. But why would it, when the real goal is to keep schools closed? <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, de Blasio and Chancellor Richard Carranza just moved to ax Gifted & Talented programs citywide, infuriating parents who want their kids to learn. They\u2019re also working to gut standards at the city\u2019s high schools. And it\u2019s all in the name of \u201cequity.\u201d<\/p>\n

Will any candidate for mayor condemn both de Blasio\u2019s ideological war on excellence and his constant caving to UFT\u2019s cynical \u201cnever reopen\u201d agenda? If not, the next mayor will be as big an enemy of the city\u2019s children as this one has proved to be.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
