Senator Serrano Speaks To Parents And Educators At The Cec 3 Legislative Breakfast

Senator Serrano was happy to attend the Community Education Council 3 and District 3 Annual Legislative Breakfast last month. CEC3 is one of the 32 Community Education Councils (CECs) in New York City and includes public elementary and middle schools on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Leaders within the council and district gathered to discuss the strides made during the 2016 school year, and to stress the importance of legislative involvement in their schools.

Senator Serrano and other elected officials were able to speak on their fight for quality education. Senator Serrano highlighted the importance of a robust arts education curriculum in schools, in order to insure a well-rounded learning experience.

“The arts, culture and music education have proven to have a transformative effect on a young person’s life. So it is crucial that we continue to fight for advanced education opportunities not just academically, but artistically as well. Many thanks to Community Education Council 3 and District 3, for their continuous fight to provide the best education to our students.”
