Focus Group & Planning Meeting
District 5 Focus Group & Planning Meeting for Upcoming Town Hall With Chancellor Carranza
The CEC in District 5 will host a focus group for parents, DOE staff and the community to come out and voice their concerns about the state of District 5.
During this meeting we will organize all of your concerns and questions, so that parents can present them to the Chancellor. We only have 1 hour with the Chancellor and we want it to be very productive and solution focused.
Please come out and share your concerns, ideas and any thoughts that you think could help our district become a better space for learning.
Please RSVP at CEC5@schools.nyc.gov
