Community Education Council (CEC) for District 25 

What are Community Education Councils (CEC)?

​

Education Councils are part of New York City's school governance structure. There is a Community Education Council (CEC) for every community school district. There are also four Citywide Councils:

1. the Citywide Council on High Schools (CCHS)

2. the Citywide Council on Special Education (CCSE)

3. the Citywide Council on English Language Learners (CCELL), and

4. the Citywide Council for D75 (CCD75).

All NYC Education Councils are elected every two years (in odd years.) This election rule is set by NY State Education Law. The three mandatory officers (president, treasurer, recording secretary) of PA/PTAs vote for the parent members. Each Borough President and the Public Advocate also appoint members. All members serve a two-year term. The term begins on July 1 of the election year.
