NYC Education Analyst
 
 
 
The Mayor’s Office of Management and Budget is the NYC government's chief financial agency. OMB assembles and oversees the budgets that fund the services and activities of ~70 City agencies. The Education task force oversees and manages the budgets of NYC’s Education agencies: the Department of Education (DOE) and the City University of New York (CUNY), with a combined annual budget of more than $38 billion and provide key services to over a million New Yorkers. The primary goal of this project is to provide budget and program analyses, helping clarify decision points impacting the agency’s budget and ability to deliver services effectively to those most in need. The objectives are: 1. Provide budget and policy oversight of Special Education in NYC Public Schools, including researching program areas and funding types to improve decision making and equity. 2. Research all aspects of school level budgeting processes at NYC Public schools, including but not limited to Fair Student Funding, School Allocation Memorandums, and the Panel for Educational Policy. 3. Monitor and forecast expenditure trends in both special education and general education at NYC Public Schools throughout the year. The NYC Vista member will focus on additional, previously unexplored details that will enhance and refine forecasts to help better allocate funds. This VISTA position is a part of the NYC VISTA program, a group of 25+ VISTA members serving in New York City Government agencies supporting their anti-poverty work. The NYC VISTA program is administered by NYC Service, a division of the Office of the Mayor. This position is supervised directly by a city agency staff member and will be a part of the larger NYC VISTA community.
