As the City moves forward under the new Presidential Administration, AFC and the Newcomer Education Network (NEN) strongly urge New York City Public Schools (NYCPS) to strengthen existing policies and implement additional measures to safeguard immigrant students’ right to access public education.
This letter to Chancellor Aviles-Ramos from the 27 organizations that make up NEN provides recommendations for NYCPS, including updating guidance, policies, and training for schools; fostering partnerships with citywide agencies and community-based organizations; building school staff capacity; and centering and supporting students and families.
