  • There are over 50 candidate forums, listed below, scheduled between March 3 and April 24.

    They are hosted by each school district's Presidents' Council with support from New York City Public Schools (NYCPS). They provide parents with opportunities to get to know the candidates who are seeking to represent their districts, as well as those running for Citywide councils. In addition, each forum provides attendees with a better understanding of the City's CEC election process, which we hope will encourage even more parents to consider running for seats during the next CEC election season in 2027.
