Concerns Rise as Schools in New York Prepare for Influx of Migrant Students

Parents in New York City are expressing alarm and frustration over the lack of information and communication from the Department of Education (DOE) regarding the plan for accommodating approximately 18,000 migrant students in city schools. With the start of the school year just weeks away, parents are concerned about the potential impact on their children's education and the lack of preparation by school officials. The DOE's silence on the matter has led to speculation and anxiety among parents, who are calling for transparency and concrete steps to address the situation. Additionally, there are concerns about a potential bus strike that could further disrupt the start of the school year.
