On December 9th, parents, students, educators and community leaders across the country will raise their hands and demand more for America’s children. On the National Day of Action: Raise Your Hand for our Schools and our Solutions communities will demand that those who know students best devise and implement community-driven solutions to tackle the opportunity gaps in American education.
The day of action is an outgrowth of ongoing collaboration among the National Education Association, the American Federation of Teachers, and several key community partners to mobilize support for public education, pushing back against the corporate takeover of our public schools and lifting up the voices of practitioners and communities about what is best for our students.
In Vacaville, today, we’d like to ask you to share your thoughts on school reform. Specifically, we’d like for you to share how schools would be reformed if you were in charge. Please share your ideas on our Facebook page, in the comments section below or email your comments to the VTA webmaster. He may be reached at coreypenrose@yahoo.com.
