The forum will feature presentations by Jersey City's Mayor, Bret Schundler; President of the American Federation of Teachers, Albert Shanker; Congresswoman Marge Roukema; and New Jersey's Commissioner of Education, Leo Klagholz.
The panelists will debate the merits of passing legislation that will designate Jersey City as a test site for several innovative education pilot programs, which include: open enrollment, magnet schools, charter schools, and school vouchers for students attending non-government schools.
In 1989, the Jersey City Public School System was taken over by the State Department of Education because of poor student performance and endemic corruption.
