Public Advocate Gotbaum on Mayor Bloomberg's Attack

MANHATTAN – Public Advocate Betsy Gotbaum today released the following statement in response to Mayor Bloomberg’s attack and continued her call for the Administration to give parents and teachers a voice in improving our schools:

"Mayor Bloomberg is lashing out again because this third reorganization is running into a wall of opposition from people who count: students, teachers, administrators and parents. That's just the way he does business. But that's not putting students first.

“Communities have lost faith in this leadership. Mayor Bloomberg and Chancellor Klein should take power back from the consultants and give parents and teachers a voice in improving our schools.”
