School overview

The High School for Climate Justice

What the school’s public updates show about student life and local decision-making. Part of New York City Geographic District #2.

Who makes decisions for this school?

NYC Public Schools governs the school; its local decision record is limited online.

The High School for Climate Justice is a District 2 NYC Public School. NYCPS names the school leader and district contacts. The school’s own public record shows frequent student-life and learning updates, but it does not currently provide a public archive of School Leadership Team minutes or local budget decisions.

NYC Public Schools is the governing system

NYCPS lists this as DBN 02M655 in Geographic District 2. Its Community Education Council advises on district issues, while NYCPS manages the school system.

The school posts regular community updates

The official news archive records college visits, arts, student activities, climate learning, and family events during the reviewed period.

Local meeting records are a gap

The official site identified an SLT coordinator but did not publish current SLT minutes, agendas, or a recurring leadership-meeting archive. This does not establish that the SLT did not meet.

School-level spending is not explained in the collected record

The reviewed updates do not state the school budget, per-student spending, or the funding source for individual activities.

A limited online governance record does not show that families lack ways to participate. It means the public sources reviewed do not let families verify local discussion or spending decisions in detail.
