Good morning! This is Alex with Chalkbeat New York.
Through NYC’s Diversity in Admissions program, Bard Early College High School Manhattan has seen its demographics shift. But changing admissions is only the first step toward true integration. The larger question: What is being done to support these students once they’re enrolled? Our latest episode of P.S. Weekly explores how the school supports underrepresented students.
And if you’re a P.S. Weekly fan — or just want to beat the heat — join us this evening at 6 p.m. at the main branch of the Brooklyn Public Library for a live event where student journalists will lead a conversation about pressing issues in the city’s school system. RSVP here.
Local education coverage is disappearing. Chalkbeat helps families and educators understand what’s changing. We can’t do it without you.
