For over a decade, the East Ramapo Central school district (ERCSD) has faced a crisis of leadership that has resulted in the steep decline of its public schools. The education of white students attending private religious schools is prioritized at the expense of the public school system that almost entirely serves students of color. After many years of exploring alternatives, including monitors with limited power, A.5683/S.6052 represents an effort to finally realize the key recommendation of the Greenberg report. The NYCLU supports this legislation and calls for its passage.
