"I spent two decades of my career in roles across NYC public schools - from math teacher to principal to superintendent - and I've seen many iterations of our organizational chart, iterations that often lacked cohesion, efficiency, and clarity. I needed to make some structural changes."
"The coaching philosophy shifts, culture evolves, and expectations have risen, yet the responsibility remains the same. Elevate."
New York City Schools Chancellor Kamar Samuels unveiled his 11-member cabinet on Thursday, with all members having extensive experience in NYC public schools. Six cabinet members retained their positions from the previous administration. Danielle Giunta was named first deputy, overseeing academics, district leadership, and two newly created supervising superintendent roles—one for elementary and middle schools, another for high schools and alternative programs. Samuels emphasized the need for structural changes to improve organizational cohesion, efficiency, and clarity. Key retained positions include Simone Hawkins as deputy chancellor of early childhood education, supporting the mayor's universal child care initiative, and Kenita Lloyd as chief of staff, who previously worked with former Chancellor David Banks.
