BSAC Interviews BPS Superintendent Candidates

____________________________________________________________________________

Members of the Boston Student Advisory Council sat on a student and teacher panel that interviewed the final four candidates for Superintendent of the Boston Public Schools. 

Guided by criteria developed by BSAC, the YOUNG Coalition, and with input of hundreds of students, BSAC and BYOP provided formal and thoughtful feedback to the Boston School Committee on each candidate, evaluating them on:
  • Student Voice in Decision Making
  • Education Equity & Quality and testing 
  • School Discipline practices related to school Push Out and Restorative Justice

This youth-developed criteria has guided the Superintendent Search Committee in their process and has the support of our community partners, including the Boston Education Justice Alliance.


BSAC has historically enjoyed strong relationships with BPS leaders, including former Superintendent Carol Johnson. BSAC looks forward to working closely with the next Superintendent and wishes to thank the Boston School Committee for including student voices in this process. 

 
Sincerely,

Youth on Board & BSAC
