Parents, students, teachers to weigh in on New York City schools
The New York City Department of Education has begun a citywide survey of more than 1.8 million parents, students and teachers concerning their attitudes about the public schools. The $2 million effort is part of the Children First initiative, in which each school will receive a report card with a standard school grade, A through F. Data from the surveys will account for 10 percent of each school’s grade.
