Listen "City students facing big changes as they return to school"
Episode Synopsis
As the new school year kicks off, there are big changes for city public school students. For the first time in years, they will learn to read using a new curriculum. The change is part of an effort to increase comprehension, a problem highlighted during the COVID-19 pandemic. Plus, schools around the five boroughs will absorb around 20,000 migrant children. NY1 anchor Pat Kiernan speaks with education reporter Jillian Jorgensen about what awaits students and teachers this school year.
