Department of Education newsletter claiming Israel is committing “genocide in Gaza” was sent out to hundreds of teachers — prompting fuming Jewish educators to call it out as another example of ingrained antisemitism in the city’s public school system.
The 14-page “Teacher Career Pathways” spring 2025 newsletter — which sports the logos of the city DOE and the United Federation of Teachers union — went out over the last week to “master teachers” across the system’s 1,800 schools.
“The genocide in Gaza, among other global injustices, emphasized the urgent need for student voices to be centered and heard,” it said.

This newsletter needs to be removed and someone needs to apologize immediately,” one teacher, who requested anonymity, said.
“Does [New York City Public Schools] expect me, a Jewish educator, to disseminate a message that so callously references the ‘genocide in Gaza’ as the inspiration for this student group?” the teacher continued.
“To frame this pro-Palestinian protest – which was a pro-Hamas protest, filled with antisemitic tropes, and called for the eradication of Israel – as some noble catalyst?”
Earlier this month, Schools Chancellor Melissa Aviles-Ramos was forced to apologize for a different newsletter that linked to a “Stop Gaza Genocide Toolkit” — sparking outrage in the Jewish community.
That 17-page document contained radicalized messaging that encourages readers to “Stop arming Israel and free Palestine!”
Meanwhile, an anti-Israel group last week sent an email blast to hundreds of city teachers pushing for a May Day strike and other “civil disobedience” to protest the Gaza war.
The Labor for Palestine Network called for union members to rise up against “the ongoing Israeli genocide in Gaza” and even coordinate their efforts with student groups, which teachers were told to ignore by city school officials. ***

I’m guessing that this same teacher is teaching her students that America , is evil, Trump is Hitler, and white males are toxic.
That said, the inhabitants of Gaza should be relocated and Israel should turn Gaza into a nature preserve or vineyard.
Ping to the anti-Israel brigade!
Let’s see if anyone here joins the claim that Israel’s actions are a ‘genocide’. It is PATHETIC to use that claim, and probably the biggest abuse of the term since similar claims were made regarding the Serbs fighting the terrorists in Kosovo.
Is the ADL still around? What are they doing?
General Dynamics hired a couple of female FAMU graduates to create a company newsletter. It read like it was produced by a socialist political party. The first issue was about how wonderful labor unions were and how evil corporations are.
My gosh.....when we think NYPS cannot sink any lower ping.
muslims
Hey, spunned! BobL needs to see that some FReepers are calling Israel’s counterattack “genocide”.
Here’s your opportunity!
please don’t forget friends...it’s the new york Jewish democrats who give these jew hating bass tards their power to foment hatred toward the Jewish people. NEVER forget that. why should non-Jews help a people who actively work toward their own destruction until they do? it’s a fair question.
American public education is thoroughly corrupt.
Yeah, I just have trouble believing that the Israelis could only take out 1 or 2 percent of the population in Gaza in a year if they intended to exterminate all of them (which is the definition of a genocide...maybe except for Israel?).
The Democrat Party OWNS NYC.
This Doublethink cannot long last.
It will implode like a carbon fiber submarine.
The Jewish Americans will awaken en masse and leave them sitting in the wreckage of their own destruction.
They may not all come to the Republican Party, They may even form their own, but they will not sit sided by side with people that despise them, God and freedom............
The ADL was an early victim of the left’s long march through the institutions.
Now they are just another leftist zombie organization.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Whatever happened to graduating kids who were educated instead of indoctrinated???? Or just flat out brainwashed?
My Lord! Just how evil can some people get ? And it seems there’s a lot of it in the schools these days. Where people are supposed to be reasonably intelligent and well socialized
There’s no way this calumny was “simple igborence, an innocent mistake “
— no way in Hell
Schools these days are nothing more than terrorist training camps for they dems.
“student voices to be centered and heard”
That’s the problem right there. They are training and indoctrinating political activists. Students are in no position to be seen and heard they are there to learn how to learn.
Damn anti-Semitic MAGA crowd, oh wait . . .
