City to open seven new public schools in September, including two in Brooklyn * Brooklyn Paper

City officials, led by Mayor Eric Adams, are set to open seven new public schools across New York City by 2025, including two specifically in Brooklyn. These schools aim to address the urgent need for educational resources, particularly for students with learning disabilities and in overcrowded neighborhoods. The Central Brooklyn Literacy Academy will focus on literacy support for grades 2-8, while the Middle School of Innovation will integrate STEM education and personalized learning for grades 6-8, catering to diverse student needs.

"We know it takes a city to raise a child, and our administration understands that investing in our children's education is investing in the future of our city."

"The Central Brooklyn Literacy Academy will build on the success of the South Bronx Literacy Academy, serving students who have demonstrated challenges in learning to read and may be at risk for dyslexia."
