Eva Moskowitz’s crisis day

Eliza Shapiro

Eva Moskowitz stood before an auditorium filled with Success Academy parents in Harlem Thursday afternoon and told them the crisis for her charter schools she had long predicted from a de Blasio administration had arrived.

"This has to be the saddest day in Success Academies' history," she yelled into a microphone, shaking her head. "The saddest day."

The hundred or so parents she had gathered gave her a loud round of applause.

The upheaval to Moskowitz's schools that had so long been hypothetical became real when the Department of Education announced Thursday that it would reverse three planned co-locations involving the Success network that had been approved under the Bloomberg administration.
