So just out of curiosity, have you ever taken any honors classes, any higher learning?

Maybe you were in high school, elementary, AP, magnet?

Did you ever take anything like that?

Because the mayor of New York City thinks all of those people that take classes like that

is not fair and he wants to get rid of it.

And I'm going to read a New York Times story that just came out about him wanting to do this

with his last three months left in New York as the mayor.

And I'm going to react to it and I want to get your thoughts as well.

Here's a New York Times story, the Blasio to phase out New York City Gifted and Talent program.

Mayor de Blasio on Friday unveiled a plan to overhaul gifted and talented education

in New York City Elementary School calling for sweeping changes to highly select the program

that has been widely criticized for exasperating, exasperating segregation in the nation's largest school system.

Under Mr. de Blasio's plan released when he has just three months left in office,

elementary schools who are currently enrolling gifted classes would become the final cohort

in the existing program, which means the test given to kindergarten students to screen

for the gifted programs already suspended in part because the city's advisory school board

refused to renew it last year would become permanently done, would be permanently ended, right?

And here's what he says, here's what his thoughts are and a couple of the thoughts from parents

from both sides.

Here's his thoughts.

I bet you a lot of parents are going to look at this plan and say, this is the reason

we're going to stay, says de Blasio.
