NYC School Call to Action

Ø Half of NYC students are below grade level in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math

Ø There are 369 schools where 2 out of 3 students are NOT on grade level in English Language Arts

Ø The number of students way below grade level (Level 1) in ELA jumped from12,000 to 63,000 citywide this year

THIS IS AN EDUCATIONAL EMERGENCY

JOIN US

As we call on the NYC Department of Education to:

. Implement a plan for intensive academic services for all students who test in Level 1 and Level 2
. Provide strong, comprehensive supports for all struggling schools
. Stop all high-stakes decisions based on test scores and establish a new accountability system
