Your independent guide to NYC public schools

Calling all students, teachers and administrators:

On the evening of Thursday, February 12th, members of the NYC Student Union are launching our citywide Student Government Project. This is an evening for students, teachers, and administrators from public schools to come learn about organizing and implementing effective student governments in their schools. It is also a day to begin communication between student governments and between the NYC Student Union and individual governments.

During the meeting, we will collaborate on revising the Student Union’s student government model and help create plans for improving or implementing successful student governments in different types of schools. Participants in schools with successful student governments will share their experiences and give suggestions to students trying to start their own. Students, teachers, and administrators will leave with helpful ideas, plans, tools, and support for the improvement or creation of student governments in their schools.

The meeting will be held at 5:00 p.m. at the UFT Building (50 Broadway between Exchange Street and Morris Street). For directions, check www.nycstudents.org.
