In Action Alerts, Announcements, Children & Education

As you know, we are STILL waiting for DOB to make a decision on an increase for 4410 classroom providers and while 6 years with no increase starts feeling like 7 we are all beginning to panic!!!
 
The State Education Department (SED) supports the increase, The Assembly and Senate support the increase, all the work has been done and now the decision must be made by the Department of Budget (DOB).  DOB is controlled by the Governor’s office so

it is really the Governor’s decision now.

 

LETS RALLY!!!!!
The Governor and his staff need to see and hear that our parents and teachers are fighting for the very existence of their schools!
***Forward to Groups, Families, Teachers, Other Staff, EVERYONE!!!***

·      Meet in front of the Governor’s office at 633 Third Avenue in Manhattan
·      Tuesday, August 25th, 2015
·      from 11am till 1pm.

We need:
·       Bull horns – does your program or agency have one?  Do you know someone who would lend one?
·       Signs – please have the kids in the classrooms make them – must be hand held – no sticks!
·       Slogans – do you have ideas for chants or for catchy phrases for the posters and signs the kids can make?
·       Other ? – do you have other ideas?  Please let me know!

Please email me if you have ideas for slogans/chants ASAP – I will then set up a conference call for those of us with ideas to put our heads together.
Also, please email me to tell me approximately how many will come.

Thanks so much, as always for your help and participation.
