City Council members are calling on the State University of New York to stop approving charters until the state makes the privately run schools more accountable.
Council Education Committee Chairman Daniel Dromm (D-Queens) and nine colleagues urged the SUNY Board of Trustees in a letter Wednesday to examine “harsh disciplinary practices” and “exclusionary admissions practices” among charters.
University spokesman David Doyle said the trustees will consider comments on new charter- school applications through October.
