Subject files, 1980-1993

Scope and Contents

The subseries contains correspondence, memoranda, audits, minutes, circulars, clippings and reports. Reference materials from 1979 are included. The files focus on administrative and policy matters such as budgets, audits, high schools, school construction, and early retirement. The papers include many invitations, a large group of which were not accepted. The documents also contain a substantial file of Board materials faxed by Impellizzeri to the Brooklyn Borough President’s Office. These reveal the continuing contact between the Borough President and his appointee. The records contain the planning for the Urban Education Conference, an Anglo-American meeting, including correspondence with J. David Green who was “Her Majesty’s Inspector of Schools.” The papers do not contain information on many of the important issues of the time although they do include material on the Jose P. lawsuit which affected the administration of special education.
