Community Education Council District 15

Community Education Council District 15 Brooklyn’s Community Education Council District 15 ensures the voices of parents from our 36 public schools (26 elem, 9 middle & 1 HS) are heard.

Community Education Councils, created by the New York State Legislature, are the local bodies responsible for ensuring that public school parents and the public have input in educational decision-making at the community school district level. There are 32 CECs in New York City, one for each community school district. Each has jurisdiction over elementary and middle schools in their district. Addit

ionally, there are four Citywide Councils, specific to high schools, Special Education, English Language Learners and District 75 Special Education. CECs operate independently of the New York City Department of Education ("DOE"), and act as liaisons between the public and DOE. All CEC members are volunteers, receiving no compensation for their work. There are 12 members on each CEC: 9 parents with children attending District 15 schools; 2 are appointed by the Brooklyn Borough President; one is a district high school senior appointed by the community superintendent. District 15 runs from Carroll Gardens to Sunset Park, and includes the brownstone Brooklyn neighborhoods of Park Slope, Windsor Terrace and pockets of Boerum Hill and Fort Greene. The district also stretches into the waterfront Red Hook neighborhood. CECD15 Members, 2017-2019

We are looking for people who are willing to skillshare and volunteer 6 - 10 hours a month to bring Voces, still a small grassroots organization, to its next level.

We are looking for people with expertise in:
