Tell the DOE to support Opportunity Charter School and keep the middle school open. |
We need you to tell the DOE to reverse their decision to close the OCS middle school, and ask that OCS be granted all of its charter term requests to meet the needs of even more students with disabilities across New York City.
Despite the fact that OCS submitted a multitude of strong, validated, value-added evidence of academic success during the charter renewal process, the DOE chose to ignore this information and denied OCS’s request to become the first charter school in NYC dedicated exclusively to serving students with learning disabilities, AND also denied OCS’s request to reach students earlier in their developmental stages by adding grades K - 5. We need your support to reverse the DOE’s decision. Sign our petition to tell the DOE you fully support OCS, and that the needs of children and their families should be put first. |
Unlike any other school in New York City.OCS has been a partner with The Children’s Aid Society Carrera Program for nearly a decade. Together, we have done tremendous work helping students succeed inside and outside of the classroom by offering a wide range of support services, and were recently featured on the front page of the Detroit Free Press in recognition of our excellent work.
