This will be the first year ever NYC schools close in observance of Diwali. I was proud to lead and win the fight that made this possible in Albany with the passage of my historic legislation. Last night, I celebrated with John Adams High School at their Diwali show! 🪔

Meet this year‘s Co-Leader to Principal pipeline! 💪🏾Last year we were able to promote three of our Co-Leaders to Principals. At QSHS, we believe in building a bench that is strong, and prepared to take on the principal seat in or out of our district. #SeedsofExcellence
