—Brad Lander (39th) and District 15 public school
parent leaders are calling on the governor and legislators in Albany to
give parents a greater voice in their children’s education. They want
state leaders to ensure new school governance legislation contains
stronger checks and balances on the power of the mayor and his
appointee, the schools chancellor, and more public and parent
participation in the public schools.
–I'm almost done: I met with Steve Levin at Ozzie's on Fifth Avenue and Ken Baer at Cousin John's and later at the Food Coop. Stay tuned for those two Breakfast of Candidates Thursday and Friday!!
