An auditorium full of parents applauded Mayor Bloomberg yesterday for his support of charter schools.
The Harlem Success Academy’s executive director, Eva Moskowitz, invited the mayor for a celebration of her charter school’s first year.
Ms. Moskowitz sometimes sparred with the mayor when she served on the City Council, but she had only kind words yesterday. “You have demanded that parents like ours have a choice,” she said.
Ms. Moskowitz said she hopes to create a network of 40 charter schools modeled after Harlem Success.
