Stop the proposal of co-location of failing schools of in existing school that are passing, which will cause over-crowding of students in classroom and hallways.
Why is this important?
Our school has been effected co-location by elected public officials who have sign off in agreement of co-locating a failing school into our existing building. They claim that we have space in our building to hold an additional 60-80 students. Our general population which holds 768 students, can hold up to 818 students, elected officials approved this co-location proposal on 4/17/2013 without warning or giving parents, who have children waiting on an existing waiting priority over the in coming school effective as of 9/2013. It is not only happening in Brooklyn, each borough is being affected by co-locations of schools and parents should have a voice in their children's education. Folks who do not have children in the school system, should not have a voice for what is good for them. Parents get on board with your child's education, they will only be left behind if we, as parents of a new generation don't stand up for them.
