Supporting Families | Warm Up
"Rare is a 13-year-old equipped to handle the selection process alone. The process can become like a second job for some parents as they arm themselves with folders, spreadsheets and consultants who earn hundreds of dollars an hour to guide them. But most families in the public school system have neither the flexibility nor the resources to match that arsenal."
The Broken Promises of Choice in New York City Schools, New York Times, May 5, 2017
"Time is an often-unacknowledged obstacle for families applying to New York City schools. A study of the NYC high school process found that the high school application process requires a time investment of, at a minimum, 25 to 72 hours."
Equity and Excellence for All: Diversity in New York City's Public Schools, NYCDOE, June 6, 2017
"xx High School, a popular high school, was not present at the Citywide or Borough fairs...it has been difficult to register students for open houses...it has been difficult to register for test dates at XX...this was the worst year yet for open houses; all dates filled up immediately."
Members of the NYC High School Application Advisory Committee, Fordham Law School, October 2017
