Where's Your Whereas? Help Us Save Our Schools With Your Examples!
Please take immediate action.
City's Legislative Action Committee needs YOUR help to let legislators know how the structural deficit and continuing education funding cuts are hurting our kids. We will collect specific, personalized, 1-sentence examples from parents and students to include in the longest resolution ever for submission to the State at a rally in Lansing June 18. We need to put human faces to the numbers they're crunching. PLEASE PARTICIPATE by adding a simple example in the comment section of this post by following the READ MORE link.
Here's an example:
"Whereas our school board can not fund transportation to state music festivals which are critical to our son's development as a musician, or provide sheet music, instruments or repair..."
The solution to our resolution will be to take action to remedy the structural deficit, equalize education funding, and to keep the promises made of an increase for 2008. Your voice counts! Don't miss this chance to help!
To add your "Whereas" (in other words, your personal example of how funding cuts have hurt your child) please use the comment box below. Note that your email entry while adding it does not give a live link to contact you. If you would like to be contacted about future rallies and legislative action, please post your contact information and email address at the end of your resolution. We will make every effort to combine your personal examples into a final resolution for submission.
Thanks for helping! Together we can make a difference!
