Today marks the official launch of the Yonkers Public Schools & SUNY New Paltz Kick-Off Free-Microcredentialing program! Through this exciting partnership, 30 #YonkersPublicSchools teachers have been selected to participate to earn the Science of Reading Microcredential Certification —along with graduate credit toward a degree in education from @newpaltz !

This cohort will meet both in person and virtually throughout the summer to help shape the future of reading instruction in our schools. Congratulations to the First Science of Reading Micro-credential Cohort! #YonkersMagic

The first cohort completed its five session training on best practices for using Artificial Intelligence (AI). The AI Micro Credentialing Course provided tools to support teachers in effectively developing exams and lessons. School building leaders learned how to craft prompts, use multiple AI platforms, and save time on day-to-day tasks which in turn allows for more one on one time with students. Thank you to Iona University for their partnership! #YonkersMagic

“This is about fairness. Yonkers is a model urban school system - a gold standard for what is possible in a highly diverse community. Our students deserve the same funding and opportunities as their peers across New York State.” – Superintendent Aníbal Soler, Jr.

We must #ProtectOurProgress. Protect The Investment. Protect Yonkers Public Schools.

The future of 24,000 students depends on fair funding. Superintendent Soler delivered a powerful testimony, urging state leaders to fix a broken funding formula that unfairly penalizes Yonkers. The time to act is now!
