I”m w/ @BisforBerkshire-not having a K12 policy agenda is a cop out. There are plenty of things Mamdani could do in addition to making schools greener or providing families w/health care, housing, etc. Kids spend much of their lives in school & what happens there matters a lot.

People in the education-advocacy area, but also a lot of parents, are disappointed in how little @NYCMayor has done in K–12 compared to previous administrations as I pointed out to @niaprater of @NYMag

“They need to put together a real (class size) plan or they’re never going to get there and that involves aligning enrollment with class size as mandated in the law and building a lot more schools more quickly”

Are you kidding @AndyBeshearKY ? Of course @DemGovs Association should invest in @GinaHinojosaTX campaign. Her win would be a huge prize for Democrats & for the state of Texas. nytimes.com/2026/10/01/us/po…

Bizarre –1st bonuses for teachers assigned to classes that don’t comply w/class size law &now bonuses for principals if they do? What if they don’t have the space – which DOE has done nothing to provide. None of this makes sense. NYSED should step in.

Bill Gates on attending private school with small classes: “that was another piece of incredible luck. There were 15 kids in a class compared with 30 in public schools” So why’d he spend so much $ on bogus studies to show that class size doesn’t matter? thetimes.com/life-style/cele…

Reminder @nycmayor @ZohranKMamdani : the demand for smaller classes is NOT flat. Hundreds of thousands of NYC kids are being denied this. What is your plan to address this? Their right to a quality education does not stop at age 5.

Mamdani makes his upteenth announcement on 3K - meanwhile not any word on improving opportunities for kids in grades K-12 or what space provided for smaller classes. Parents are agonized waiting to hear which schools to be provided with that opportunity. nydailynews.com/2026/05/18/m…
