New Spotlight Post Identifies Where Puerto Rican Students and Families Live in New York CityHurricanes Irma and Maria devastated Puerto Rican homes, infrastructure, and lives. New York City district officials have already indicated that they are preparing for a large influx of students fleeing the aftermath of the hurricanes.
The most recent post in our Spotlight series highlights the percentage of New Yorkers with Puerto Rican heritage in each census tract. In several of the maps, we show schools that are located in these areas of the City and indicate whether or not each school is currently above its intended capacity. Given the inevitable need for additional support for Puerto Rican students and their families, this Spotlight post can provide insight on what areas in New York City may need the most support, and where it's best to direct outreach services.

| New Project: Evaluating CTE in New York City High Schools
The Research Alliance has begun our evaluation of Career Technical Education (CTE) in New York City schools. CTE aims to prepare students for a wide variety of careers in an evolving job market. In collaboration with MDRC and the University of Connecticut, the Research Alliance will conduct several studies related to the implementation and impact of New York City’s CTE programs, and expects the findings to produce valuable insights and lessons for the NYC DOE and other schools districts around the country that are implementing and developing their own CTE programs.
