The merger plan has passed, but our fight isn't over. We need to demand a comprehensive independent study to protect our students' programs, local control, and fair representation.
Don't let a rushed decision decide your child's future. Please take 2 minutes today to email the State Board of Education and let them know we need transparency and a thorough review of the financial and educational impacts!
