Oh you’re exactly the person to look into this. Here’s an excerpt from the June 24, 2026 city council meeting. It was brutal. Councilman Eric Dinowotz described what he was hearing as “flying the plane as it’s being built.”
Link to the hearing summary here:

“The May 2026 State Comptroller audit featured heavily. It found that NYC Public Schools lacks a formal written data classification policy, does not maintain a comprehensive list of all applications used by each school, and that of 141 data breach incidents reviewed, 67 were reported late.”
