A new year's poll: What was the most important 2007 NYC education story?

Posted by Philissa at 5:52 PM

Earlier this month 45 of you answered a poll about what you consider the best source of information about New York City's public schools. As I hoped and expected, most of you (68 percent) said Insideschools is your favorite source — but I was a little surprised that the DOE came in second, with 13 percent of responses, before other parents, your school, and "other."

Here's a new poll for the new year. What was the most important 2007 NYC education story? Your choices:

• The DOE's reorganization
  
• The launch of the Insideschools blog
  
• The rollout of Roland Fryer's incentive programs
• The showdown between the City Council and Mayor Bloomberg over the cell phone ban
  
• The state delivers Campaign for Fiscal Equity money 13 years after the initial suit
  
• The progress reports
  

Or did I miss something big? It's totally possible. Leave your nominations for additional stories in the comments. Let's hope the pace of change is happier and healthier in 2008. Happy New Year!
