PS 8's overcrowding
Monday, December 1, 2014 at 11:58AM
It is not new news that PS 8 is very very crowded and their kindergarten class may be "capped" in fall of 2015. That means that there may not be enough seats available for all in zone families at K. I have found, in other neighborhoods where this has been a problem (look to Park Slope and Kensington for Brooklyn prototypes), that the families who have the best outcomes are the ones who stop shaking their fists in frustration and try to affect change and/or avail themselves of the system which may also provide them with a wide range of school options. The DoE will do what the DoE will do, but they are not against listening and numbers will always get attention. You will feel frustrated through this process and rezoning (which will happen with a new plan or building) is always painful for someone.
There have already been some public meetings with the DoE and PS 8 PTA. In answer to the "Frustrated Mom" piece: all the people involved can't say anything specific, because if they did, they would be flayed when it didn't happen (or did). It would be imprudent and misleading. This is a process. First they need current numbers which they will get in Feb. with the Kindergarten Connect application process. The Office of Planning will go away with the numbers, work out a plan and come back for input. You will not like any of it. Change sucks... in the beginning, but sometimes it ends up well. The people that spoke at the meeting are really your advocates and they aren't stupid or insensitive, they just can't make promises in a preliminary meeting. If you alienate them or turn away from them, you lose your muscle.
The PTA is being very proactive in starting this conversation, and galvanizing community interest in this issue is the way to go, but they have no power over this. The DoE Office of Planning and the Community Education Council are the ones that deal with the capacity issues at schools. Rezoning, if it happens, wouldn't be on the table until next fall to go into effect for fall of 2016. Any new construction will be years in the making, but when the capital funds have been assigned, it is utilized faster than you would think (but it still can be years and you guys don't have that). This will be worked out as quickly as possible, but that means at least a year and a half, probably longer for an long term solution.

I applaud your efforts and they will bring relief eventually.
If you would like to know about the kindergarten application process and the other options available for k that are out there, I am giving my Intro to Public School: Prek and Kindergarten talk on Thurs. Dec. 11 at 7:30 at the Brooklyn Conservatory of Music in Park Slope. Tickets and information is here: http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/964449
I won't be talking about individual schools at this event, but you will come away with an understanding of how to apply out of zone to g&t, dual language, magnet, unzoned, out of zone and charter schools.

Enjoyed storytelling festival
I so much enjoyed the Possum Town Tales First Annual Storytelling Festival in Columbus this past weekend. If you have never heard a skilled "teller" you are missing a wonderful opportunity to be absolutely enthralled. Being told a story is a pleasure not just reserved for the very young. Children and adults of all ages delight in being told a good story, and good stories were in abundance this weekend. Thanks go to Beverly Norris, the Columbus Arts Council and the wonderful event sponsors who made it all possible. I am already looking forward to next year's Possum Town Tales Storytelling Festival.

text: Bailon's Authentic Bacolod Piaya ej July 8, 2010 Featured, Food & Dining 4 Comments Have you ever tried authentic Bacolod piaya? Bailon's Piaya Stack | Manila Reviews.com If you're like me, then your concept of piaya is the flaky starchy flat disc filled with a smattering of molasses. I was surprised to hear, then, when our Lola offered us some "authentic" piaya from bacolod. I've already had full meal and can barely eat anything else, so naturally, i said yes. Bailon's Piaya | Manila Reviews.com The piaya was heated before it was served to me. Instead of the usual powdery and extremely thin layers, it only had one very thin crispy outer shell. The bite was pretty chewy – another quality that's quite different from the normal piaya. The inside of the shell was covered in molasses and sesame seed. Bite into Bailon's Piaya | Manila Reviews.com So how did I find it? At its most basic, Piaya is a very simple sweet treat. What sets this one apart is its texture — crispy outside and chewy inside. The heat brought out the taste of the molasses and gave the treat its chewiness. If you like simple Filipino treats, you have to try Bailon's Piaya. It's uncomplicated, fun to eat, and just delicious.

Bloomberg (09/20/12) Shobhana Chandra
The Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia reported on Sept. 20 that manufacturing in the Philadelphia region shrank for a fifth straight month in September, reinforcing signs the industry will offer less support to the U.S. economy. The bank's general economic index improved to -1.9, higher than forecast, from -7.1 in August. Readings less than zero signal contraction in the area covering eastern Pennsylvania, southern New Jersey, and Delaware. The median forecast of 62 economists surveyed by Bloomberg was -4.5.
The figures, which showed a slump in sales and cutbacks in employment, add to concerns that a pillar of the expansion is faltering. Cooling exports due to the European debt crisis, combined with slower business investment and restrained household spending in the world's largest economy, mean manufacturing may stay depressed. "The sector continues to struggle," says Millan Mulraine, senior U.S. strategist for TD Securities. "There's uncertainty both domestically and globally. We're likely to see manufacturing moving sideways."
