How is it 20k per classroom to add Window A/Cs? Making contractors rich on the backs of public schools.

You have to design/modify the window to accept the AC unit and support it. The AC unit will larger to handle the occupancy. You have to upgrade the building electrical system to run all these classroom AC's at once without tripping the breakers.

107.4°F?!?! 😮

They should just make it mandatory that all schools are outfitted with full heating and air conditioning systems and if they dont the state won't fund any other programs or grants until it is done further more they should turn off the air conditioning and turn on the heat in the BOARD OF EDUCATION ADMINISTRATION BUILDINGS! UNTIL THEY COMPLY!

They need that at Laguardia Bagroom. Its stifling in their. They refuse to turn on the A/C because they dont want to pay for the electricity. All we have is one fan per pier. Gets very hot.

“The heat is excruciatingly hot in the classroom”. -A teacher said that

Dude, 100+F will do that to you😅

back in the days, lucky you got a fan. and the fans blows hot air. lols....

my trailer in michigan gets to 85 degrees on a few days in summer with all windows open and several fans on

The plastic chairs might melt

I went to high school in the midwest in 3rd floor classrooms with no AC or even fans.

You’re gonna hate it when you get out in the real world and you work in places where there will never be air-conditioning

It’s true. My first year teaching I was on the 5th floor walk up with no functioning air conditioner in my classroom. (That’s in 2018) It’s unhealthy and it’s very common. It exhausts you, increases negative behaviors in the classroom and a health risk factor. I believe this is a terrible condition of many of classrooms & schools throughout the city.

Seems like keeping people cool should be common sense....

No matter how much money you give them they always need more

opening windows can increase heat further

Went to NYC public schools in the 1970s and 80s and not one of the 3 schools had air conditioning or any fans. Guess what? We all survived. By the way, I don’t believe for one minute that a classroom on Long Island was 107.4 degrees……the media is such drama.

I like 70°

The 3rd rock from the sun Space is unforgiving -450 F Only by sheer luck do we survive. Luck runs out. We are in an emergency but are distracted by money.

Hmm, all kids of the dark and tan variety. 🤔 Wonder if it’s a pattern 😑

where are the white kids ?

Probably all in the gym when the cameras are around! They only get money when they show darker people

When i went to public school in NYC it wasn’t air conditioned. The teachers opened the windows. The kids today are soft

No AC in any of my schools either, and that was in 2007.

Are you serious???? This is what lawmakers are concerned about, this? I know classroom comfort is important, but maybe they can spend time working on crime legislation. Let the districts take care of their own AC.

We used to sit in hot classrooms and now these kids r getting classes cancelled

Oh no our kids are gonna have a better life than us!?!?!

They don't made kids like they use to.

Damn y'all dont got A/C in NYC. No wonder they keep moving to Miami.

Got to give the brotherhood some goodies before the election- big $$$ to comply - then multiply it by your favorite green factor costs.

Why is this news? We don’t care- back in my day we didn’t have heat or air con…. Get over it ❤Jeffrey Epstein supporter ❤
