“Today the Mayor and Chancellor showed once again that they don’t just talk, they get stuff done. Since the fall, parents, community leaders, and elected officials have consistently called for G&T to be restored, and today the Mayor and Chancellor demonstrated that they are listening. By not just expanding the number of seats available citywide, but also expanding programs to every school district in the City, and allowing students to test into the program at later ages, this new program will prove that we can have equity and educational excellence at the same time. I thank the Mayor and Chancellor for this announcement and look forward to working closely with them to ensure smooth implementation in the months to come.”
