New York City is justifiably proud of its 3-K and Pre-K programs, which serve tens of thousands of students across the city.\u00a0 But no program is truly universal if it doesn\u2019t serve the needs of all our students, especially young children with special needs.\u00a0 These children deserve the same opportunities as their peers in general education, and when they have those opportunities and early intervention, they can flourish.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

I speak from personal experience. I struggled with reading in school, but it wasn\u2019t until I reached high school that I discovered I was dyslexic.\u00a0 When I received the help I needed, it opened the doors to so many opportunities. It put me on the path to be where I am today.\u00a0 And I want to ensure that every child, no matter their abilities, has a bright future, which is why my administration has made a historic investment in early childhood education for children with disabilities.<\/p>\n

Moving forward, we will offer more seats for our special needs students in 3-K and Pre-K programs, and they will receive more hours of education.\u00a0 We will increase the\u00a0length of the day among providers who were operating for\u00a05 hours to more than 6 hours, so that they can better support our most vulnerable learners.\u00a0 This will match the day of children in general education programs.\u00a0 It has never made sense that those who needed more help have less time in the classroom.<\/p>\n

We are also increasing the pay for our special education teachers\u00a0among our contracted providers\u00a0so that they are paid in line with teachers in\u00a0other early childhood contracted programs.\u00a0 The difference in wages is unjust, and it has been going on for too long.\u00a0 My administration is making sure that our special education teachers can be properly compensated and our children can benefit from experienced, highly qualified educators.<\/p>\n

The New York City public school system constantly strives to improve and to meet the needs of all of its students.\u00a0 Some of that improvement comes outside the classroom.\u00a0 We are committed to serving our children healthy and culturally appropriate meals in a comfortable and inviting setting.\u00a0 We want children of all religions to be able to participate in school meals, so we are reaffirming our commitment to ensure that all schools that request halal meals for their students can receive them.<\/p>\n

And after two years of the pandemic, we realize how important it is for our students to be able to socialize during lunch, so we are investing $50 million in an improved cafeteria experience.\u00a0 We will begin work this school year to roll out 80-90 cafeterias that prioritize student comfort.\u00a0 There will be more options available in the salad bars and in hot and cold cases, so that students don\u2019t have to spend their lunch period standing in line; they can pick up their food and spend more time enjoying school lunch in the new booth-style seating with their friends.<\/p>\n

Our children are in school for 180 days a year, and being in school is such an important part of all our children\u2019s lives.\u00a0 We want our schools to be places where every child feels seen and heard, where all children, no matter their background or ability, can learn inside and outside of the classroom and grow into well-rounded and emotionally secure citizens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
