Duh.
And once your kids are old enough for public school, you'll find it to be in complete disarray with 30 kids in a 1st grade class. Greatest City In The World!

Rebecca was impressive. An #NYCSchools graduate - she is designing and building social robots to help people with anxiety, autism and dementia. #EdTech
In #nyc , our mayor and our governor give us austerity budgets and try to make life difficult by underfunding our #NYCschools and abandoning our #NYCparks because they are worried that the rich will leave if they tax them.

Point-of-fact, the rich do NOT leave because of NYC/NYS taxes. Middle class people do (probably because you’ve underfunded and messed up schools) and poor people leave (because housing is so expensive).

The teams are in place for the big event High Schoolers. The teams have 1 hr to design a solution to a city management issue. #MinecraftEdu #NYCSchools
Today, my role is Hangar 2 Greeter aboard The Intrepid for the #Minecraft #BattleOfTheBoroughs #NYCSchools
A (#Seattle) Greenways friend who moved to #NYC emailed me randomly about the smoke; in giving life updates, I mentioned that we were suing the city for school tuition.
She responded with, "Is that what everyone does? I just assumed because we have our own lawsuit, not kidding."
What a stupid system. #NYCSchools
Better late than never. Air still bad tomorrow. But,
#NYCSchools
should have moved to remote education Wednesday when air was hazardous (PM2.5 >> 400). Instead it was business as usual. What are you doing
#NYCMayor #nycemergencymgt
? You act like the #smokewave was a surprise!
All #NYCSchools remote again tomorrow, Friday. Elementary kids were scheduled to be off anyway.
Brooklyn Technical High has reported the highest number of cases in #NYC on Tuesday:

@Davidtoddmccarty I'm a NYC union public school art teacher. I enjoy my job, but I have little energy for my own work. I'm very glad for the benefits and retirement plan. I struggled as a freelance artist. But I'm ready to retire.... unfortunately Tier 6 city employees got royally fucked, they changed retirement from 55 to 63 with serious cuts. The #UFT ain't doing jack about it. I'll be out before then. #NYCTeacher #arteducation #NYCSchools #TeachersUnion
Did you know this?!:
"If your children go to #school in Boston, Massachusetts, then checking on their air #pollution is easy. Every #classroom, office and school nurse’s room has its own pollution sensor; a total of nearly 6,000 instruments with more than 100 more on school roofs, and all the results are online in real time."
Why don't we do this in #nycschools? And in every school?
