Schools should be a safe place for children to learn. But the crumbling infrastructure in many of New York City’s public schools is affecting the health and safety of both students and teachers. Issues like poor air and water quality, a lack of green spaces and temperature control, and the presence of mold, asbestos, and lead have no place in the classroom. Health hazards like these are proven to lower test scores, increase absences, and impact staff retention. That is why we’re rallying on Wednesday, May 20th at 12:00 PM on the steps of City Hall to demand that New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and the City Council invest in Green, Healthy Schools to improve our public school infrastructure and deliver a clean and health learning and working environment.
