Thank you @EmilyPrincipal and the amazing @uaunison school community for opening your doors!
Truly powerful to see what a strong schoolwide investment in Social Emotional Learning looks like for @NYCSchools students, in partnership with the @UrbanAssembly.
We are thrilled that @DOEChancellor, Executive Superintendent @ExecSuptKWatts, Superintendent @kamar_samuels, and Julie Shapiro, CEO of @TheFundforPS visited @uaunison today to see SEL integration in action, both in-person and virtually!
I'm so proud to share our 2020 Annual Report. @TheFundforPS raised nearly $46M from 750+ donors to support innovative solutions & priority initiatives of @NYCSchools. Thank you to our private donors who have stepped forward to safeguard our students' stability and future success.
From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU @DOEChancellor for being a true champion for equity since day one. Your extraordinary leadership & devotion to lifting up all @NYCSchools students will be felt for generations. We look forward to building on this success with @MeishaPorter.
I came to New York City 3 years ago with a mission – to help the DOE reach its full potential, and to serve and lift up all of our @NYCschools children. And we have created so much important change together with all that I have. In March, I will be stepping down as Chancellor.

Beyond proud of the impact our 8-year partnership with @BankofAmerica has had on @NYCSchools students — especially this year, as we adapted CTE Summer Scholars to meet the moment. Read what students gained from their fully virtual trainings and internships👇🏼
From work-readiness trainings to paid internships aligned to in-demand jobs, our (now virtual) CTE program provides students w/a range of experiences to help them make confident college & career choices! Thx @BankofAmerica & @TheFundforPS for the support! https://t.co/v0kGhuRHXC
With an all-time high grad rate & lowest-ever drop out rate (in the middle of a pandemic) the #NYCClassof2020 serves as an example of resilience for our entire city. So proud of our students, families, and @NYCSchools for this achievement!

O’Melveny’s long-standing partnership with @TheFundforPS has left an enduring mark on @NYCSchools, helping to pave a path to college and careers for hundreds of seniors. Congratulations to our talented students and thank you @omelvenymyers!
Thank you @Verizon for boosting our efforts to support @NYCSchools students and their families in this critical moment. Your donation will go towards ensuring students have the resources they need to succeed— no matter where they are learning.
Thank you to Google for supporting CS Leads, our program to empower and grow teacher leadership in CS education. CS Leads are key to helping schools implement CSE, build inclusive culture, and plan for an equitable future.
For our children, a return to in-person schooling is also a return to more mental health and social service support. We are focused on addressing student and staff social-emotional needs across school communities (remote and blended) as part of everything we do.
