EDUCATION UPDATE

Endorses
Mayor
Mike
Bloomberg

He has focused on improving education. He has ended social promotion in the 3rd, 5th and 7th grades; abolished the unelected and unaccountable school board; raised math and English test scores to the highest levels ever; fought for and delivered $862 million from Albany for our schools. He has delivered needed textbooks to every student and streamlined bureaucracy so that $250 million more is spent in City classrooms.

• Mike Bloomberg is building and
preserving 68,000 affordable housing
units in all 5 boroughs
• Welfare rolls are at the lowest level since January 1965

• 62,000 new jobs have been created
• Crime is down 20% citywide and every borough is safer
• School violence is down and test scores are up

For the first time in decades, the Mayor and the Schools Chancellor
are working together to provide the best education for our children.

Re-Elect Mayor Mike Bloomberg,
the Education Mayor
