Dear Families,
I hope you and your families are keeping safe and healthy. I’m writing today with some important news. After three years leading the DOE, I will be stepping down as Chancellor in March.

Your feedback on remote learning, technology, how the Department of Education is communicating, and the health and safety in our schools will help us plan both remote and in-person learning. If you need help completing the survey, please call 311. The deadline to complete the survey is Friday, February 5, 2021.
