Literacy support, HBCU classes, health care careers: 7 new schools coming to NYC
Briefly

New York City is set to open seven new public schools next year, including a literacy-focused academy and a health care high school. Education officials hope these new institutions will combat falling enrollment by addressing community needs, focusing on literacy for struggling readers, preparing students for the workforce, and accommodating newly arrived immigrant students. Despite the risks of rapid school openings amid declining student numbers, officials believe these initiatives can revitalize the city's education system.
Education Department First Deputy Chancellor Dan Weisberg emphasized the city’s new school strategy aims to address community needs and combat enrollment challenges.
The Central Brooklyn Literacy Academy aims to revamp literacy education by focusing on students with dyslexia and enhancing overall reading skills.
