Adams supports more accelerated learning, but would ‘reserve right’ to seek out his own plan, not de Blasio’s

After a campaign event in his home borough Tuesday, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams commented on Mayor Bill de Blasio’s decision to replace the Gifted and Talented program, this time elaborating on his education plan.

As mayor, Adams says he would “reserve the right” to implement his own vision for accelerated learning, despite de Blasio’s lame duck effort to drastically change the program for high-achieving public school students.
