RSVP for NYCoRE’s
Back to School Meeting
Friday, September 19th
6-8 pm
Join NYCoRE for our first meeting of the 2014-2015 School Year. This year there will be some new changes in the membership and meeting structure, which we’ll be rolling out at this meeting. We will also be introducing our new campaign working group on high stakes testing as a tool to perpetuate racism and neoliberalism.
This meeting will focus on the foundations of NYCoRE’s political lenses and the new structures this year. We’ll be exploring these questions:
What does race have to do with education reform?
What does neoliberalism have to do with education reform?
How is high stakes testing a tool of racism and neoliberalism in education reform?

There will also be a NYCoRE 101 Session at 5:30 for folks who are new to NYCoRE and who would like to hear more about the organization and ways to plug into it. If you are interested, please RSVP here.
Vegetarian dinner will be provided. Please bring your own drinks. Also, NYCoRE is making an effort to go more green this year. We’ll have plates and cutlery, but we encourage you to bring your own so we can reduce our use of disposables. Let’s be radical in all aspects of living.
Please Bring ID and RSVP here to give us a head count for food, and to notify security.
Thanks,
