Staten Island parents were fuming Wednesday about being left out of Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s lofty free 2-K pilot program — calling the omission “simply unfair.”
State Sen. Jessica Scarcella-Spanton, a Democrat, urged Mamdani and the city Department of Education to reconsider the rollout so Staten Island gets included.
“Although I am aware that this is just the beginning rollout of the program, the inability to place any of the 2,000 seats in only one of the five boroughs is astounding and simply unfair,” she said in a statement.
