Jeff Kaufman sent along this item:
The UFT chapter at Island Academy brought this information to D.79's attention and nothing happened.
Thanks for the info Jeff. Reminds me of the movie "Escape from New York" where they turned Manhattan into a massive prison and blew the bridges and left the prisoners to fend for themselves. True negligence on the part of all, including the DOE.
I wonder if there are any charter schools that wants to take some of these juveniles?
Any charters looking to co-locate at Rikers? Harlem Success Academy at Rikers?
