The second of two articles concerning the problems currently going on in NYC schools. I'm not sure if it is for the best or not it just seems like many minorities and students with disabilities would be passed on from school to school.
Since Mayor Bloomberg's council was granted control of the school system in 2002, it has closed 91 schools. The article goes on to say that the mayoral check is relatively small since 8 of the 13 members on the council are appointed by the mayor and can be removed when he sees fit. Makes me think that they would vote a certain way to keep their position. Read the articles and see what you think.
