Mayoral control update; parent protest today at Tweed

Today the The New York Post reports that state Democrats in Albany are ready to pass legislation extending mayoral control of New York City public schools, but  The New York Times reports that the bill passed by the Assembly will not sail through the Senate.

Meanwhile, here in Manhattan, parents who would like to protest mayoral control will converge on Tweed Courthouse at 5 p.m. today. The New York Coalition for Neighborhood School Control and the Parent Commission  on School Governance are co-sponsoring the rally.
