It was such an honor to be with New York Edge’s Education Specialist today at City As School. We are incredibly fortunate to have this dynamic group of educators leading the way in our schools. Big shout out to New York Edge’s curriculum development team for an outstanding training and an inspiring exchange of ideas. What a fabulous team! Next week, we’re excited to partner with Disney and First Book , where they will be giving away 40,000 books—that’s right, 40,000 to all of our sites. Proud of our team and all the amazing work they’re doing! Check out City As Schools Mural on the side of the building. #publicart #NYEdge #BookDonation #Teamwork
