Last night's Boston School Committee meeting covered declining enrollment, the Superintendent's contract and an update on transformation schools. Enrollment and Graduation Rates: Member Brandon Cardet-Hernandez raised two key questions about district trends, enrollment and graduation rates, both of which have been ongoing areas of concern. Superintendent Skipper confirmed that enrollment is declining across the district, particularly among “newcomer” students, whose numbers are “roughly half” of what they were last year. She explained that while BPS is working to support families, several upcoming cohorts will be smaller, a trend driven by both post-COVID demographic shifts and broader declines in birth rates. The Superintendent also noted that a more complete enrollment report will be presented in November. As for graduation rates, Skipper said that while internal numbers suggest an increase in June graduations and a “robust summer cohort,” final figures will not be available until the state releases official data later in the school year. Public Comment and the Upcoming Exam School Vote: 33 speakers addressed the Committee during public comment, with many focused on the exam school admissions policy. The upcoming vote on this issue will take place next week, and the evening featured impassioned arguments on both sides of the debate, some defending the current system with others pushing for policy shifts. In addition to the exam school discussion, quite a few speakers advocated for increasing access to dual-language programming. Superintendent's Contract Discussion: The Committee then voted to approve several grants before turning to a discussion of Superintendent Skipper's new contract. In framing the conversation, Superintendent Skipper spoke passionately about her commitment to Boston and the mission of BPS. Absent in the discussion was a lack of benchmarks or goals tied to Skipper's renewal. Member Cardet-Hernandez echoed this sentiment, and he called for a more calibrated and evidence-based evaluation process. Transformation Schools Accountability Update: The Committee then heard an update on Transformation Schools, schools identified by the state as requiring targeted intervention. Superintendent Skipper noted that while there are “signs of progress,” persistent challenges remain, including low student achievement and chronic absenteeism. She highlighted that for the third consecutive year, more schools improved their accountability percentile than declined, with 18 schools improving and eight remaining steady. Member Cardet-Hernandez called the presentation both encouraging and sobering, noting that despite incremental gains, roughly one-third of BPS schools remain in transformation status, serving the highest concentrations of Black, Latino, low-income, multilingual, and special education students. State of the Schools Address: Special guest, Greg Maynard, from the Boston Policy Institute discussed the first ever State of the Schools address from Mayor Michelle Wu. While the Mayor touted new bilingual education, an increase of air conditioning units, and improvement on transportation times, there were a number of more thorny issues that the Mayor avoided. The speech stopped short of confronting the district's most pressing challenges. For instance, while Mayor Wu cited examples of students taking advanced coursework, her discussion of overall academic performance was minimal. Mayor Wu did not address Boston Public Schools' recently released MCAS results, which remain far below pre-pandemic levels. Finally, on transportation, Wu noted that 96% of school buses arrived on time yesterday but did not address the district's long-term failure to meet the standards required under the 2022 Systemic Improvement Plan (SIP), which set a monthly 95% on-time goal.

In Boston, there is a rising number of dangerous incidents involving mopeds, e-bikes, and motorized scooters, many of which are operated without licenses, registration, or insurance. Mayor Wu has cited safety concerns regarding food delivery app drivers in the city and filed an ordinance this year to increase accountability. In addition, a bill has been filed, S.2347 An Act Relative to Transportation Safety, aimed at curbing these incidents. The legislation would increase fines for traffic violations and require insurance for commercial use.
