[edit] School system keeps us in dark - parents

"Parents and advocates say they are shut out of information allowing them to keep tabs on how the mayor's management of the school system is working.

Many report extensive delays and barriers getting access to public information just as a showdown looms over control of the city's schools.

Mayor Bloomberg is the first to have direct control over the school system, but the law giving him that power is up for renewal this year."
