Schools chancellor unveils plans for ‘Parent University’
Schools Chancellor Richard Carranza wants to teach parents a lesson.
At an Oct. 3 town hall in School District 19, the head of the city’s Department of Education revealed that school officials are looking to implement a “Parent University” program to help keep parents up to speed with what their kids are learning.
“I’m gonna let the cat out of the bag [that] we are designing the process to institute a parent university,” Carranza said at the forum, hosted by Community Education Council 19 in East New York.
