There’s a “Town Hall Meeting on School Governance” coming up next week on Wednesday, July 16. An email we received says:

Please Join Councilmember Bill de Blasio, elected Officials and Education Advocates for an informational town hall session on Mayoral Control. Come share your opinions and learn how to continue to have your voice heard as the City Council prepares to discuss the reauthorization of Mayoral Control…Parents, teachers, students and others in attendance will be asked to share their experiences and ideas, ask questions, and voice concerns about the current system of school governance. Elected Officials and Education Advocates will be on hand to answer questions and present information on Mayoral Control, Parental Involvement, and other crucial issues. Questionnaires will be available so that every voice can be presented to all city and state elected officials.

The meeting is from 6:30 PM-8:00 PM at the Brooklyn Borough Hall Community Room, 209 Joralemon Street (between Court and Adams Streets).
