Episode 66: David Banks, Chancellor of New York City Public Schools

On this episode of The Miller Report, Suzanne Miller sits down with Chancellor David Banks to discuss his role in revitalizing the New York City public school system. Appointed by Mayor Eric Adams in January 2022, Banks highlights his experience as an educator and attorney, and his efforts in improving the largest school district in the U.S. His initiatives include revamping the reading curriculum with the 'science of reading' approach, reinstating gifted and talented programs, enhancing school safety through collaboration with law enforcement, and introducing Project Pivot to engage students post-school hours. Banks also touches on the challenges posed by migrant students, the importance of reducing cell phone distractions, connecting students with career opportunities, and handling issues of anti-Semitism within schools.
