Mayor Bill de Blasio said a three-year extension of mayoral control over city schools works "for now," as he rallied with parents, educators and unions Thursday to ramp up support for the proposal.extending mayoral control for three years, until June 30, 2022. It would be the longest extension de Blasio will have received during his mayoral tenure.
