My Dream For Them: Specialized High Schools & The Immigrant Experience |

It's impossible to talk about education in NYC without addressing the rigid lines of segregation that divide students across the city. These socio-economic boundaries have forced some students into understaffed, and underserved schools with limited resources. Every parent wants the best for their child. And as families scramble for limited spots in the top specialized schools, it contributes to an ever-widening enrollment gap. What does this mean for the children of immigrant parents? In this piece we meet the mothers of two immigrant families - one from China, the other from Jamaica. Follow along as we explore the challenges they, and many other face when it comes to school enrollment, why these disparities exist, and what can be done to level the playing field.
