Thread re: NYC Education Budget Cuts. I’m hearing there are still conversations happening at City Hall about education spending for next year, so let’s get more informed. To find out how these cuts will affect your school, you can look up your NYC public school’s budget. Go to schoolsearch.schools.nyc. Find your school’s page. Click on “Reports” and then “Budgets and Finances” and then “Galaxy Allocation.” Galaxy is the bank account from which principals pay their staff and for their programming.
