Supporters and local elected officials join Andrew Gounardes as he formally announced his campaign for the State Senate on Saturday, January 28th at 11am, on the Shore Road side of Fort Hamilton High School, in Bay Ridge. 

Andrew, his sister Patricia, brother Gregory, and even his mom all graduated from Fort Hamilton High School. The school is an anchor in our community, representing the best of our past and the promise of our future. With more than 4300 students enrolled, it's also one of the most overcrowded high schools in New York City. Every day, teachers there strive to educate 1500 more students than the building has room for. Nearly half of the city's public school students face a similar situation. An unfortunate legacy left by years of failed ideas, it's one of the reasons why Andrew is running for State Senate. He knows that together, we can turn this around
