Statement from Governor Andrew Cuomo
"I applaud the Senate and Assembly for
taking up the teacher evaluation disclosure bill. I believe it strikes the
right balance between protecting teacher privacy and a parent's right to know.
I also appreciate all those who participated in this important dialogue over
the past few months. The teachers' unions made important points and the bill
respects their members' legitimate right to privacy. I also appreciate the
opinion of Mayor Bloomberg and I believe the final bill reflects much of his
perspective. I know this was a difficult issue for the Legislature and I
applaud their courage and leadership. This bill is the metaphorical cherry on
the cake to the end of what I believe is one of the most successful and broad
ranging legislative sessions in modern political history. From transformative
economic reforms to historic social progress, this session was a magnificent
accomplishment for the people of New York State."
