Guide
Please use the template below to create content for your office with the name of
your office, the name of the executive director, a brief description of the
office, FAQs, and contact information.
In preparing your responses, I urge you to think about questions your
division/office has received in the past from principals and those you think may
be asked based on any policy, administrative, or structural changes we will
encounter in the upcoming year. The allotted space may be insufficient for your
respective offices so feel free to insert additional pages. Please try to be brief as
we want the guide to be as user-friendly as possible.
In order for this to be ready by the beginning of the school year, we will need
your responses by Friday, August 8. If you have any questions, feel free to Laurel
Wright-Hinckson at (212) 374-5196 or at LWrightHinckson@schools.nyc.gov.
Laurel will be editing the responses and overseeing the production of the guide
which, after completion, will be available online.
Thank you for your cooperation and assistance.

The PROSE program is designed to:
1. Foster continuous innovation to challenge some of the basic rules and
regulation under which they have historically operated in service of improved
student outcomes.
2. Foster collaboration within and across school communities
