NYC schools bring back controversial pandemic-era policy —and experts warn it is ‘rewarding failure’
Story by Aneeta Bhole, Carl Campanile, Craig McCarthy • 11h

New York City public schools with fewer students than anticipated this fall will not have their budgets slashed, officials announced Wednesday — reverting to a controversial pandemic-era policy.

About half of the system’s 1,600 schools would have seen cuts totaling $157 million had the mid-year budget adjustments proceeded as planned, the city Department of Education said. The other half, which saw an increase in students, will get an $146 million total influx.

“Our top priority is to ensure that every school leader has the resources and support to carry out their school’s mission and put our children on a path to lifelong success,” Schools Chancellor Melissa Aviles-Ramos said in a statement.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

The democrats have always been against rewards, but if they are going to reward anything, they want to reward failure.
