The Panel for Educational Policy will cast a final vote tonight on the future of struggling public schools across the city.

P.S. 161 in Crown Heights is among 25 Brooklyn schools that could be affected. Parents there boycotted the proposal to lose grades on Monday by keeping their kids out of the classroom.
