Be There: Virtually!

This Thursday a huge rally is taking place in Tallahassee, and you can be there—VIRTUALLY, that is!

On Thursday, March 25^th the Florida PTA will hold a rally at the Tallahassee Capital complex.  Many public education stakeholders will be there advocating for education funding.  Since we can’t bring all education employees to Tallahassee next week, we’re using technology to allow them to participate in a VIRTUAL RALLY to make sure that Florida Legislators Keep the Promise and Make Our Schools a Priority.

Here is what you can do to support the efforts in Tallahassee and make the Virtual Rally a success.

• Wear RED on Thursday, March 25th

• log on to the Make Our Schools a Priority website on Thursday, March 25^th at 4:00 p.m. http://makeourschoolsapriority.org/special/virtual-rally

• sign the online Keep the Promise petition

• call and e-mail legislators to urge them to KEEP THE PROMISE!

This legislative session has the potential to do more damage to our public schools than any session in recent history –we are facing attacks on collective bargaining, due process, a rollback of the class size amendment, a raid on our retirement and, yes, more funding cuts.

Thank you for all you are doing to support our legislative efforts.
