 But first, some local education news. The City Council Education Committee will hold a hearing on February 29th at 1 p.m. on the proposals of the class size working group that the chancellor appointed and what the DOE is doing or not doing to comply with the new state law that requires them to be lower in class size in all grades. I'll put links to the report of the working group and also how you can sign up to testify at this hearing. There will also be a press conference beforehand at noon on the steps of City Hall.
