 | | | Call the mayor at 212-788-3000 today Even as Mayor Bloomberg called for 6,700 teacher layoffs in his executive budget yesterday, he has done nothing to stop Chancellor Joel Klein's unbridled spending. - Klein added $500,000 to the management payroll when he recently shuffled top jobs at DOE headquarters;
- Central office staff rose by 30 percent from 2001 to 2010, from 1,749 to 2,267;
- The mayor's appointees on the PEP board are on track to approve a $4.9 million contract for The New Teacher Project to recruit and train new teachers during a hiring freeze and while we're facing possible layoffs!
The state and city have cut our schools budget by $1 billion over the past three years. We are at the bone. With the state and the city facing multibillion dollar budget deficits and people's livelihoods on the line, Klein's foolish spending is intolerable. We need every penny for the classroom. Instead of layoffs, the mayor needs to support an early retirement incentive for public school educators. Please call the Mayor's Office at 212-788-3000 today. Tell the mayor to rein in his chancellor and focus our precious education dollars on the classroom and student services. Sincerely,
