The NYC Department of Education wants to put a charter school in PS 15 in Red Hook. This decision has been made in spite of protests from the school, community & parents, & the potential impact on PS15 could be incredibly negative. This blog presents information on the situation to the community to open a dialogue about the situation to resolve it successfully. Posts represent the opinions of individuals posting them, & are not necessarily the opinions of the staff & administration of PS15.

WEDDINGS/CELEBRATIONS; Sarah Collins, Spencer Robertson - New York Times
This is just a side note, but provides a little personal background on Spencer Robertson. He's apparently from a very well-off background... it must be nice to work for good old dad, but what about those hedge funds? How well is he really going to fit in in a place like Red Hook? Is he just "slumming", or does he have a real interest in improving education for local students, or is he just trying to compensate for having come up with plenty of advantages?
