Pryce said it’s been six-months of silence; no incoming teacher had reached out, no summer reading was assigned and she’s had no expectations outlined for the fall school year.

So she took it upon herself to give her son his own classroom experience. Pryce lined walls with posters, picked out books according to her son’s grade level, crafted flashcards and printed math sheets for Gavon to practice as he geared up for the fall school year.

“We’re just trying to keep him on level because the teacher this year didn’t give me any clear indication of what she’s seen or what she would like to see from my child. I feel so at a disadvantage because I put so much into him I would like the same,” Pryce told NY1.

It is the first day of school for New York City public school students, and the city has taken on a phased-in approach, which wasn’t announced until days ago. Under the new plan, students will return to classrooms on a rolling basis over a 10 day period. Only students in 3K, pre-K, and District 75 schools, which serve students with disabilities, will open Monday.

Pryce opted for the fully remote option for her son. She said she received no confirmation that her son was successfully slated for virtual learning until she herself reached out.

Pryce expressed frustration that she hasn’t had opportunities for personal communication with her son’s teacher, despite her reaching out. She said the teacher only communicates through the school’s classroom portal.

“Help me. Make me feel like you want to help my child, you want to be involved with my child. I haven’t received that at all from the teacher this year,” she said.

When she finally did receive a school schedule, Pryce said it had no specifics and did not outline topics or subjects. She also described the material her son was given as “very generic.”

“I just feel like this year they dropped the ball,’ she said.

Pryce was a guest on “One New York” Monday morning.
