New York City School Closures has no followers yet. Be the first one to follow.
Over 100 New York City Firefighters joined leaders of the Uniformed Firefighters Association, other FDNY unions and New York City Council leaders on the steps of City Hall to denounce the proposed closure of 20 firehouses and up to 42 more based upon the state budget allocated to the city. The news conference took place prior to the City Councils Fire and Criminal Justice Committee budget hearings on the closures proposed by Mayor Bloomberg. The Council delegation which included Council Members Elizabeth Crowley, (D- Queens), Chair of the Fire and Criminal Justice Committee; Dominic Recchia (D-Brooklyn), Chair of the Finance Committee; Peter Vallone Jr. (D-Queens); James Vacca (D-Bronx); Diana Reyna (D-Brooklyn); Daniel Dromm (D-Queens), Dan Halloran (R-Queens) were also joined by community leaders and school children from across the five boroughs. UFA president Steve Cassidy said, New York City Firefighters have responded to more emergencies in the last five years than at any other time in the history of the FDNY. Closing firehouses, especially at the levels proposed by the mayor would make it virtually impossible to provide protections at the level New Yorkers expect. He added, Citizens throughout New York must rally to protect the firehouses because it will certainly affect their own health and safety. Closures mean a dramatic increase in the time it takes to get a fire truck or an ambulance to an emergency and as result, civilians and firefighters will die. "The fact ...

from www.myfoxny.com By: KATHY CARVAJALA decision about sharing space among charter and public schools in New York City is expected on Wednesday night. Schools Chancellor Joel Klein is facing backlash from parents who say their children are being shortchanged by adding charter schools. Speaking with Good Day NY on Wednesday, Klein said he wished there was more space to avoid co-locations. "I wish we had a lot more space in New York City. About 500-600 schools share space. But we need to share the space fairly among all 1.1 million students. We need to give parents hope and opportunity," Klein told Good Day NY Co-Host Rosanna Scotto. Opponents like Leonie Haimson who represents the non-profit organization Class Size Matters says public school students are being shortchanged. "Parents see it like charters schools have invaded their public school space. (Charter schools) have taken away libraries, classrooms and intervention spaces," said Haimson during Good Day NY on Wednesday. Charter schools- or schools operated independently of the local school board- are often run by politically connected individuals and educate the most elite of children, said Haimson. "Sometimes a school year in and year out doesn't do the work... the Obama administration has said we should be closing five percent of our schools," said Klein. The bottom line, said Haimson, is to "let the parents decide.. it's our children... if you put this up to a vote among all the parents including charter school ...

In December 2009, the Department of Education announced that 20 schools in New York City were to be phased out. Since then many parents, students, teachers and alumni have voiced their concern over the abrupt closures of many neighborhood schools. This video includes interviews with teachers from Jamaica high school in Queens, a school with a 117-year history and one of the schools targeted by the Department of Education.
Last Thursday afternoon, January 21, on E. 79 St., across from the mayors mansion, parents, students and teachers peacefully protested against the administrations proposals to force mass closings of public schools and their takeover by charter schools. They were exercising their constitutional right under the First Amendment to publicly demand that these policies that undermine the public school system and deprive their children of an adequate education be stopped. Meanwhile, a reporter on the scene caught on videotape the actions of police who were taking photographs of the protesters from the roof and inside a private school across the street. In 1985, the federal court ruled that it is illegal and a violation of civil rights for the New York City police to take photos of protesters, unless they have cause to believe that a crime may be committed. The city signed a consent agreement that year, restricting police surveillance according to these rules, called the Handschu Guidelines. In the case of this peaceful protest, there was no such cause. The video is available on youtube at www.youtube.com The protesters are asking for a full explanation as to why the pictures were taken and how the police plan to use the photos. The protestors also want to know whether any videotaping of them was done. Finally, they are considering filing a complaint with Judge Charles S. Haight Jr., the federal judge who has continuing jurisdiction over the enforcement of the Handschu Guidelines ...
Today, January 20, 2010, Haiti Relief Fund Volunteers from the Mayors Fund to Advance New York City rang The Closing Bell® at the New York Stock Exchange in recognition of their efforts to raise more than $621000 to date for disaster relief in Haiti.

To date, over 110 volunteers who speak Haitian Creole, French and Spanish have worked more than 90 four-hour shifts.

Frank Sinatra New York, New York In 1980, New York New York was recorded by Frank Sinatra, for his album Trilogy: Past Present Future (1980), and has since become closely associated with him. He occasionally performed it live with Minnelli as a duet. Sinatra recorded it a second time in duet with Tony Bennett for his 1993 album Duets. The first line of the song is: Start spreadin' the news, I'm leaving today I want to be a part of it: New York, New York. The song concludes with the line: If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere, It's up to you, New York, New York. Minnelli's original recording of the song uses the following closing line If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere, Come on come through, New York, New York. It should not be confused with the song "New York, New York", from Leonard Bernstein/Adolph Green/Betty Comden's musical On the Town, which features the lyric "New York, New York, is a helluva town / The Bronx is up and the Battery's down..." Composers Kander and Ebb stated on the A&E Biography episode about Liza Minnelli that they attribute the song's success to actor Robert De Niro, who rejected their original theme for the film because he thought it was "too weak." The song did not become a popular hit until it was picked up in concert by Frank Sinatra during his performances at Radio City Music Hall in October 1978. Subsequently, Sinatra recorded it in 1979 for his 1980 Trilogy set (Reprise Records), and it became one of his signature songs ...

An amazing time lapse film showing the several week long demolition of the Star Theatre in 1901. You will notice that the demolition is done entirely by hand...no mechanical crane or electrical tools...hey its 1901. You can tell the passing of time by the lengthening shadows on the building to the left. Also the shopkeepers awning on the bottom left is opened and closed to reflect the business day. You will also see the shades in the widows to the office in the top left of the building open and shut to reflect the sunlight throughout the day. At one point you will see a rainstorm come in witch darkens and obscures the image slightly. You will notice that the streets are NOT asplhalt but dirt. There are NO automobiles but horse drawn carts and omnibuses. Think of all of the Horse crap!! NYC must have been a hot, dusty, and dirty town back in 1901.

(05/26/09) MIDWOOD - One of the four private Jewish schools in Brooklyn that chose to close because of swine flu fears reopened Tuesday. Yeshiva Tiferes Yisroel, located on East 35th Street, was closed for just one day before administrators decided to reopen. Rabbi Rosenshein says there was one suspected case of swine flu at the school. The New York City Department of Health says none of the schools' suspected cases have been confirmed. Parents say they respect the schools' decisions to voluntarily close in order to keep students from spreading germs.

from: grassrootseducationmovement.blogspot.com Many public schools across the city have been targeted for closing this year. From Red Hook, Brooklyn to the Rockaways to Harlem to the Fordham neighborhood of the Bronx, all doomed by School Report Card grades of D or F, which are based on a single year's achievement scores. The decision was made unilaterally without hearings or community input. This new round of closings affects hundreds of teachers and more than three thousand students. It follows six years of school reorganizations under Klein and Bloomberg that have directly affected tens of thousands of students and left close to 1700 teachers still without positions. Teachers in the targeted schools lose their school communities and the relationships they forged over years. Practical knowledge that school veterans have developed is discarded as new schools are established all over again. The drama of school condemnation only obscures the deteriorating conditions of learning. Class sizes have increased. Buildings are overcrowded. The Daily News recently reported that 17000 lack access to a school library. Dozens of overcrowded schools are using their libraries as classrooms. Others have librarians working as teachers. Such dismal lack of the basics is not accounted for on school report cards. It must be obvious by now that the doe's obsession with accountability is more about controlling people than the improvement of anything. Grading schools with yearly achievement ...
April 21, 1898 Thomas A Edison manufacturing Co. ABOUT THE NEW YORK JOURNAL When William Randolph Hearst bought the competing New York Journal in 1895, he lured Pulitzer's celebrated Sunday newspaper staff to the Journal with the promise of raises, all but one secretary accepted Hearst's offer. Pulitzer lured them back to the World with raises of his own, but then Hearst made a counteroffer, causing many to return to the Journal. (It was said that the sidewalk between the two newspapers was growing thin.) Rivalry between the two newspapers—especially when both published cartoons based on the Yellow Kid character in Richard Felton Outcault's comics—gave rise to the term yellow journalism. It was an era marked by publicity stunts, screaming headlines, and sensationalism as the newspapers competed for readers, staff, advertisers, and public attention. The World played a major role in whipping up the jingoistic spirit that led the United States into the Spanish-American War. -Encyclopedia Britannica William Randolph Hearst (b San Francisco, 29 April 1863 - d 4 August 1951) Newspaper publisher and political leader. By focusing on Spanish atrocities in Cuba, Hearst helped to mold public opinion against Spain, contributing to the country's drift toward the Spanish-American War in 1898. He considered his ''new journalism'' an answer to the needs of a democratic society, and in daily newspapers selling for one cent he offered expanded sports coverage and illustrations, introduced ...

HBO & Autism Speaks Screen "Autism: The Musical" in New York In anticipation of the March 25th premier of "Autism: The Musical" on HBO, the network hosted a screening of the film at their headquarters in New York City on Tuesday, March 18th. "Autism: The Musical" follows five children with autism and their families as they embark on a journey to write, rehearse and perform a musical under the guidance of The Miracle Project Founder, Elaine Hall. HBO Senior Producer of Documentary Films, Nancy Abraham, introduced Autism Speaks Executive Vice President of Programs and Services Peter Bell, who made opening remarks. Bell discussed having a fifteen year old son on the spectrum and lauded the film's message of overcoming societal hurdles facing those with autism. "So many things we read about autism have said what our kids wouldn't be able to do," said Bell. "They wouldn't be able to get married, graduate from high school, have friends, and fifty percent of them wouldn't talk ... The movie you're going to see tonight is about what our kids can do." Wyatt Isaacs, one of the children from "Autism: The Musical", took the mike next. In true showman form, Wyatt opened with a touch of levity, joking about "disgusting" airplane food, before countering with "but what I realized is that things are not important. It's about love. And that's what I put into this movie." Producer Sasha Alpert and Director Tricia Regan closed the pre-screening session by thanking Miracle Project founder ...
