With NYC public schools wrapping up for the summer this week, the Adams administration announced two new educational initiatives on Monday — including one devoted to students with disabilities and multilanguage learners.
The city Department of Education will launch the Division of Inclusive and Accessible Learning (DIAL), which will have a $750 million annual budget and approximately 1,300 staffers, according to City Hall. It will be led by DOE’s longtime special education chief Christina Foti, who is being promoted to deputy chancellor to head the new division.
