发帖数: 29846 | 1 Charter School Parents, Opponents Sue NYC Mayor Bill De Blasio
via Breitbart Feed
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio's decision to rescind approval of three
charter schools has attracted the ire of much of the state and multiple
lawsuits from parents standing up for their children's education. It has
also attracted the wrath of the far left, who are suing de Blasio for not
shutting down more charter schools.
CBS reports that parents of students at Success Academy are collectively
suing the mayor for refusing the school access to public property,
effectively shutting down the three institutions and evicting 192 students.
Echoing Chirlane McCray, de Blasio's wife, who declared that education is "
the defining civil rights issue of our day," the parents are suing de Blasio
for violating their children's civil rights in federal court. They are also
suing the Department of Education as a challenge to de Blasio's reversal of
predecessor Michael Bloomberg's approval of those schools. The mayor said
this past weekend that he would work to find more space for the schools, a
reversal of his original shutdown.
That reversal has brought him a second series of suits from a flank of
education reactionaries to the left of the mayor. While de Blasio did shut
down several Success Academy schools, he approved 36 of the schools that
Bloomberg had also approved, 14 of them charter schools, which outraged
community advocates who wish to shut down the charter school system entirely
. According to the New York Post, Public Advocate Letitia James and Council
Speaker Melissa Mark Viverito are suing against the assigned co-locations
for public and charter schools.
The first poll of the de Blasio administration, out last week, suggests that
New York City's voters are less than happy with the disorganized and
polarizing administration so far. Parents, in particular, have been angered
by seemingly arbitrary decisions of when to open and close schools, as he
forced children to attend public school during one of the city's large
blizzards. Adding insult to injury, the hosts of MSNBC's Morning Joe gave de
Blasio a tough time on charter schools, and host Joe Scarborough joked that
de Blasio's choice to inflict multiple snowstorms on New York City was "
crappy" and reminded viewers that he warned that electing de Blasio would
ensure the city was "going to hell." At this rate, we can expect passersby
to regularly fling rotten fruit de Blasio's way by the end of next week. | C*******h

voted for.
