  • "There’s nary an education issue that David Bloomfield isn’t equipped to expound on, as his students at Brooklyn College and CUNY Graduate Center – and journalists working the New York schools beat – know well. Bloomfield’s insight on important debates over school diversity, yeshiva education and funding equity are backed by his experience in the nonprofit and local government sectors, as well as in the field as a professor, middle school teacher and lawyer."
