Advocates for Children of New York gen yon vizyon sengilye: yon sistèm lekòl ekitab ak enklizif kote tout elèv resevwa edikasyon yo bezwen pou maksimize potansyèl yo antanke granmoun.
Nou goumen pou fanmi yo
Pandan plis pase 50 ane, nou goumen bò kote fanmi Vil Nouyòk ki soti nan kominote ki pa gen resous yo atravè yon konbinezon inik nan sèvis, tout konsantre sou pwoteje dwa edikasyon ak elimine baryè nan siksè pou tout elèv yo ka pwospere.
“Lè m gade dèyè, sa m sonje sitou se lè m te fristre ak fache paske m pa t aprann fason lòt timoun yo te sanble. Manman m te konnen depi lè m te nan lekòl matènèl mwen pa t ap pwogrese jan mwen ta dwe ye a.”
Lè Laura te premye vini nan AFC, li te gen difikilte nan lekòl la ak yon andikap aprantisaj ak enkyetid grav, ak echwe nan tout klas li yo. Avèk sipò ak entèvansyon AFC, Laura te grandi akademikman ak emosyonèlman nan yon plasman lekòl ki pi piti, ki pi apwopriye.
AFC te goumen avèk siksè pou ranvèse akizasyon ki asosye ak sispansyon enjis Steven. Jodi a, Steven se yon elèv ki gen siksè nan prestijye Stuyvesant High School.
Governor Hochul’s Executive Budget proposes changes to the formula used to decide how much education funding school districts get from the State for each student. While the formula is out-of-date and needs updating, the Governor’s proposal would result in NYC Public Schools getting nearly $350M less than they would without these changes. Join us in asking Governor Hochul and the NYS Legislature to update the formula to give all schools the funding they need.
