NEW LAWSUIT: Asian-American mom suing Mayor Mamdani and Chancellor Samuels on the expansion of the Discovery program to NYC’s Specialized High Schools. Former mayor DeBlasio expanded the Discovery program (used to admit low inc students who missed the SHSAT cutoff) from 5% to 20%, with the goal of admitting more Black and Hispanic students.
