Center for New York City Affairs at Milano The New School of International Affairs, Management and Urban Policyis organizing an event. The mayor will unveil 45 new community schools this month in a much-touted effort to help low-income students.But which schools need the most help? And what kind of supports will have the greatest impact? The Center will release a report exploring these questions in elementary schools. We propose a new measure of poverty, designed to identify the highest needs schools and discuss what should come next in the mayor’s bid to reduce poverty’s effects on students.
