We closed the “Achievement Gap” and made sure that every student in Yonkers has a chance at building the future they want for themselves. I’m proud to say that our graduation rate is the highest out of all the big cities in the state! https://t.co/g7fnzAwljf via @lohud
Excited to be in Albany today standing with the Yonkers Council of PTA/PTSAs and Yonkers students as we rally for the appropriate funding for Yonkers schools, students, residents and taxpayers! #FundYonkersFairly
#Yonkers Superintendent of Schools @quezada1229 logically, methodically making the case for #Yonkers students before the Joint Legislative Committees in the state capital just moments ago. #YonkersKidsMatter Our young people are #worthit!
SCH. 15 UPDATE: Clean up/air sampling complete throughout the school. Results indicate the entire building is cleared for reoccupancy. But, building is still under construction due to roof replacement, HVAC upgrade/interior restoration. Info Mtg set for 10/4 . Time/loc. TBA tom.
The latest example is School 15’s much-needed repairs, and putting a band-aid on a recurring issue is not the answer. Yonkers needs New York State to do what they’ve done for Rochester, Buffalo, and Syracuse – help Rebuild our Schools -- it’s our turn!
There is no reason for our Yonkers School students to be put in a situation where they need to worry more about their learning environment and not their academics.
