The New York City’s Panel for Education Policy voted to close 18 schools last week. Nearly 2000 people turned out, many in protest of the closings, at a meeting that has become an annual event at the Brooklyn Technical High School. Jamaica High School was one school voted on last year. Jackie Mader reports in a School Stories collaboration with Uptown Radio.
