    We congratulate Deputy Chancellor Melissa Aviles-Ramos on being named the next Chancellor of New York City Public Schools (NYCPS). As a long-time educator and current leader of NYCPS’ family and community engagement efforts, she will bring a deep understanding of the systemic challenges facing the largest school system in the nation to the role.

    We look forward to working with the incoming Chancellor to build on the work being done through initiatives like NYC Reads and other ongoing efforts to provide all students with an excellent education, including students whose needs are too often overlooked.

    We thank Chancellor Banks for his decades of service to NYC students and for focusing attention and resources on improving the way schools teach young children to read.
