Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to establishing certain requirements for district leadership teams and school leadership teams
AI Summary
This bill amends the administrative code of New York City to require both district leadership teams and school leadership teams to include student representatives. For district leadership teams, a high school student will be appointed by the community superintendent, while for school leadership teams, a student representative will be appointed by the team's chairperson or co-chairpersons. The purpose appears to be increasing student involvement in educational decision-making processes at the district and school levels by ensuring student voices are represented in leadership discussions. The bill will take effect 90 days after becoming law, and in the meantime, educational authorities are authorized to prepare the necessary rules and regulations to implement these new requirements.
