The law extending the mayor’s power over New York City public schools is due to expire in June 2024. The current version of mayoral control gives the mayor too much unilateral power; more checks and balances are needed. The New York State Education Department is holding a series of in-person public hearings as part of the state’s review of the overall effectiveness of mayoral control. Members of the public — including parents, students and educators — are welcome to testify (you must sign up two days in advance) and/or submit written electronic testimony by Jan. 31 on their experiences and assessment of mayoral control to help inform the state’s review.
