New York City Schools Chancellor David Banks spoke at the Tweed Courthouse to present the Department of Education’s priorities in the Eric Adams era.
The focus? Emphasizing community, keeping kids active as well as educated, expanding the gifted program and streamlining power to implement changes quicker.
“It’s amazing, the most innovative, brilliant principals that I’ve spoken to anywhere around the system,” Banks said. “They figured out how to navigate around this bureaucracy in order to make things happen for their kid—that shouldn’t be necessary. So what I’m going to do is I’m going to put in place a level or a system that will be a level of autonomy.”
“This is something that the mayor talks about all the time—healthy food,” said Banks. “It’s really, really important that it’s not just about meatless Mondays or vegan Fridays, but it’s about educating our young people about how to eat properly. And you have to get to them at the earliest of ages in order to make that happen.
