Voting is closed for the 2025 CEC elections! See the results!

Voting was open from April 25 until May 13th, 2025. 

Every vote mattered: in 2023 and 2025, races were lost / won by 2-3 votes.

​

To vote, log into your NYC Schools Account! (If you need help check out out FAQ or email your school's parent coordinator.)

 

For District 2, each school has a slate of 3 candidates (out of several that we are supporting) because there are 3 votes per student. If you have multiple students, please vote your school's slate for each one. 

 

Different slates by school helps to distribute votes where needed. We want to win every seat on the board.
