We are excited to welcome Mark Rush to the NYCUDL as our new Director of Programming! 🎉

Mark joins us after 28 years at the NYC Department of Education, where he served as a teacher, principal, and in multiple senior system leadership roles, most recently as Deputy Superintendent for Manhattan High Schools, overseeing instruction and leadership for 46 schools serving 33,000 students. His deep experience in NYC public education will bring a new level of alignment between our debate programming and the academic priorities of the schools we serve.

We are thrilled to have Mark on board and look forward to the vision and leadership he will bring as we continue to grow our impact across New York City.
