Expensive Colleagues,

As we wrap up the school year, I want to consider a second to say thank you and congratulations to every person at the DOE who created this university year a success, specially myself and the numerous family members users I have gotten on the NYC gravy educate. From all of us, enable me say it definitely beats functioning.

I have only been Chancellor for 6 months but in that limited period of time, we’ve completed a whole lot collectively. We’ve gotten billions of bucks from the feds, and nevertheless managed to slash the budgets of your schools by hundreds of thousands of pounds. We’ve managed to confound not only the Town Council, but also the State Assembly and Senate in their efforts to decrease class dimensions. Rather of viewing your class dimensions go down, you are going to practically absolutely observe them explode upcoming calendar year. No pores and skin off my apple, since I am going to be sitting in my office, carrying out Whatsoever.

We efficiently navigated the Omicron surge, and cleverly managed to fall the mask mandate even with the most contagious strain however. Confident, some of you bought COVID even if you masked every single working day, but I hardly ever got it. Now the mayor did. Permit me check with you this question—the mayor suggests when he has swagger, the metropolis has swagger. Therefore, if the mayor has COVID, does the metropolis has COVID? (Just a joke, Eric. Keep that 350K a calendar year coming, and make sure you don’t fireplace my brother.)

We have refused to cooperate with prospective lifeguards, resulting in a dire shortage. We are in its place embarking on a drowning recognition marketing campaign. That way, whilst you are drowning, you will understand wholly what’s taking place to you appropriate up until you drown. We’ve defunding public universities at the best fee given that the good economic downturn. We have lifted rents on stabilized residences by the highest degree due to the fact Bloomberg.

We announced critical initiatives these as the expansion of Gifted & Proficient programs, which may possibly or might not imply something, given budget cuts. We produced you sit as a result of teaching on dyslexia, because that is what the mayor has. If your pupils have some other finding out disability, also bad for them. Let them elect a frigging mayor who shares it. We also made you sit via an insipid on the net seminar about on the net privateness, because when and if it is violated, we intend to blame you. We’ll say, hey, we provided the education, so it is not our job, man.

All of these achievements are the result of your hard do the job!

In a school technique as massive as ours, each and every one of you performs a critical role in ensuring that our students are very well supported and thriving academically and socially. And you improved consider when we max out class sizing, that is gonna be one hell of a process! Fantastic matter we’ve weaseled our way out of both metropolis and point out initiatives to decrease course dimensions, and can conserve tons of funds by slashing your budgets. In simple fact, in our surveys, when we questioned what dad and mom most needed for their kids, it was fair class sizes. Properly, screw them and the subway trains they rode in on.

I come to feel monumental gratitude to be functioning along with such good and passionate people. If it ended up not for you, men and women like me would have to do this perform, as opposed to sitting in cozy places of work at Tweed counting my blessings and paper clips I will look for your direction and feed-back, and feel me, I will give it beneficial lip support at every single opportunity.

Have a risk-free and enjoyable summer months. The very best is nevertheless to come as we advance toward the 2022-23 faculty year! Hold out until finally you see what surprises the mayor and I have in store for you, UFT!

Soaring higher,

Mister Chancellor David C. Banking institutions
