Description

[50 A.D.2d 826 Page 827] While it is generally within the power of State education officials to fix mandatory minimum hours of daily instructional time, in the absence of the exercise of that power by such officials, the Central Board of Education of the City of New York may determine the number of hours of instructional time to be provided in that city's public schools. Thus, the central board is empowered to shorten the instructional day of pupils by two 45-minute periods per week. The determination to do so, an issue of educational policy within the discretionary power of the central board, was made independently of the memorandum of agreement, although within the context of negotiations for a new collective bargaining agreement, a teachers' strike and the city's unprecedented fiscal crisis. The memorandum of agreement merely reflects the central board's determination and spells out the consequences thereof upon the scheduling of the bargained-for teacher preparation periods. It is also clear (1) that the central board's determination does not violate the Decentralization Law (Education Law, § 2590 et seq.), for a uniform city-wide policy on the number of instructional hours to be provided is essential; and (2) that the central board's by-laws have not been unlawfully revoked. Finally, we note that the central board's reallocation of the funds previously appropriated to the community school boards constituted a mere readjustment of figures under pre-existing formulae and is not an impermissible reallocation under new formulae; and that the ground for dismissal of the petition of the petitioner parents, parents associations and other groups in the second above-entitled proceeding, namely, lack of standing of those petitioners, cannot be sustained (Boryszewski v Brydges, 37 N.Y.2d 361; Matter of Douglaston Civic Assn. v Galvin, 36 N.Y.2d 1). However, Special Term correctly held, in its opinion, that that petition was dismissable on the merits in any event.
