Late last month, the Pittsburgh School District received new recommendations from a consulting firm in Boston that will guide their updated Facilities Utilization Plan. The plan dictates how the school district should approach changes to grade configurations throughout schools, consolidation of schools, and the closing of specific school buildings. There is no doubt that this plan will have adverse outcomes for majority Black schools in the city, where students have been historically and systemically disenfranchised and underfunded. Too often concerns like declining enrollment or poor academic achievement will be cited in school closures, with little account given to the racially imbalanced institutional standards that have hampered public education for decades. We demand that the city of Pittsburgh put a plan in place to ensure that relocated students have a guided transition and understand the full reasons for the move.

Navigating the private school landscape can be challenging for parents, especially with shifting rankings and criteria. Over the past decade, Niche’s methodology for ranking schools has evolved significantly. Key changes include the removal of SAT/ACT scores, reflecting a trend towards holistic admissions, and increased emphasis on diversity and survey data from school communities. These changes have had notable impacts on the rankings of prestigious NYC private schools. For instance, schools such as Horace Mann have seen a decline, while others such as The Chapin School have risen due to their focus on inclusivity and positive community feedback. Understanding these factors can help parents make more informed decisions that align with their values and educational goals. Read the full analysis to learn more about the shifts in Niche’s ranking methodology and what they mean for your child’s education: #Education #PrivateSchools #SchoolRankings #Niche #Parenting #NYCSchools
