An education reform group is hosting a public meeting with Jersey City Schools Superintendent Charles Epps Thursday.
Parents and Communities United for Education (PCUE), the Jersey City chapter of the Statewide Education Organizing Committee, which pushes for better education in low-income districts, is hosting the meeting from 6 to 8 p.m. at Metropolitan AME Zion Church on Bergen Ave.
Lead organizer Mahmood Ketabchi said the grassroots organization wants to address the high schools’ alarming drop-out rate, low graduation rate, low test scores and lack of college preparation.
PCUE is comprised of parents, grandparents and concerned community members
