Elections for the 34 parent councils in NYC's public-school districts will be held online for the first time this year, a change the NYC Department of Education expects will cut costs by 60% and increase involvement.
In addition, the move will for the first time allow all parents of public-school kids to cast a vote, even though the bulk of those votes will be solely advisory. State law currently only allows Parent Teacher Association (PTA) officers the right to cast ballots for the board members.
