Schools and Providers · crosswalk watch

Which schools changed, which providers were displaced, and what DYCD still has not released.

This page combines the school tracker and provider-impact directory into one public crosswalk. The point is not to claim every provider change was wrong. The point is to show what is verified, what is reported, and what records DYCD must release so the public can see who was displaced, where, and why.

Current public count

25 schools tracked. 18 verified affected schools. 12 with explicit public opposition.

DYCD has not released a complete incumbent-to-awardee crosswalk with principal rankings, scores, protest outcomes, School Partnership Agreement status, or transition plans. Until it does, this page separates verified facts from reported leads.

How to read this page

The tracker uses evidence tiers so parents, reporters, elected officials, and lawyers can tell the difference between documented facts and leads that still need verification.

Tier 1

Explicit public opposition

A principal, PA/PTA/SLT leader, displaced provider, Council member, parent petition, press report, or public testimony states the community wanted to keep or challenge the provider outcome.

Tier 2

Turnover verified

The incumbent loss is confirmed through the award list or public reporting, but a separate school-specific public statement has not yet been located. Silence is not consent.

Tier 3

Preference dispute

The record documents a provider-preference conflict even if incumbent status or the full school-community position still needs verification.

Tier 4

Community-reported lead

Reported by organizers, families, workers, or providers. Not counted as verified until provider, awardee, and source records are confirmed.

Not complete

DYCD has missing data

DYCD has said additional schools had no award and has not publicly named them. The universe of affected schools may be larger.

Correction-first

We update the record

If something is wrong or incomplete, send the school, provider, source, date, and correction. Verified corrections strengthen the case.

What this list does not claim

It does not claim every provider change was against the community’s will.

It claims only what the current public record supports. The missing document is still the complete DYCD incumbent-to-awardee crosswalk with scores, NYCPS rankings, protest outcomes, School Partnership Agreement status, and transition plans.

Provider impact directory

Provider impact matters because children do not experience “vendor change” abstractly. They experience lost staff, lost routines, lost activities, and broken community relationships.

What DYCD must release

The public cannot evaluate the school and provider impacts without the underlying award file.

RecordWhy it matters for schools and providers
Complete incumbent-to-awardee crosswalkShows every school where a provider changed, no-award schools, and where incumbent programs were preserved.
All viable applicants by schoolShows whether the selected provider was the strongest school-specific choice or simply one viable option.
Scores and evaluator notesShows why providers won or lost and whether scoring was consistent across schools and competitions.
NYCPS advisor / principal rankingsShows whether school preference was followed or overridden.
Provider-diversity and capacity rationaleShows whether DYCD capped or redistributed awards using discretionary rules.
School Partnership Agreement statusShows whether the awarded provider and school have actually codified a partnership.
Transition, workforce, and disability-access plansShows whether students, staff, disabled children, and disabled parents are protected before implementation.

New accountability question

If a school refuses or cannot complete a School Partnership Agreement, what happens next? Families have heard that the school may move to a second choice, while at least one provider reportedly heard it could not receive additional programs because it was new. Those reported practices need a written DYCD policy and a school-specific record.

05

What to send us

The tracker gets stronger when each school entry has documents, not just rumors.

Best evidence

Provider change proof

Award notices, school emails, provider announcements, DYCD communications, registration information, or public reports.

Community position

Public opposition or support

Petitions, PA/PTA/SLT statements, principal letters, CEC resolutions, hearing testimony, press quotes, or parent statements.

Program impact

What children lose

Sports, theater, arts, debate, tutoring, late pickup, disability continuity, trusted adults, warm handoffs, staff knowledge.

Workforce impact

What happens to staff

Job loss, pay cuts, reapplication requirements, displacement of site directors, coaches, specialists, group leaders, and teaching artists.

Disability access

IEP/504 and parent access

Known routines, trusted adults, accommodation process, crisis plan, Inclusion Coordinator, communication plan, non-exclusion concerns.

Corrections

Fix the record

If the provider, awardee, school name, borough, tier, or source is wrong, send a correction with documentation.

Current action

Schools and providers need the same missing record.

Before contracts register, DYCD should release the crosswalk, scores, school rankings, protest decisions, School Partnership Agreement status, provider-diversity rationale, and transition plans.
