DBFA Urges Parents to Participate in Rally for Baltimore Public Schools
2/19/2010 4:44:00 PM by Executive Director

STOP CUTS TO SCHOOL BUDGET!
Rally in Annapolis on March 1st

Please join concerned parents, teachers, administrators, and community leaders as we send a message to our lawmakers: NO CUTS TO THE SCHOOL BUDGET! The Governor has proposed a no-cuts budget for education, but legislators may chip away at it. Lost dollars mean fewer teachers, more crowded classrooms, and weaker schools. We can’t let this happen.

In other parts of the state, some think that Baltimore City voters just don’t care about what happens to our public schools. As DBFA members, we know that’s wrong!

On Monday, March 1, please join us as we travel to Annapolis to stand up and be counted by our elected representatives. At 6 pm that evening, we will gather along with a 400 or more Baltimore City residents at Lawyers Mall outside the State House. A strong showing will help convince our delegates that they must hold the line on the proposed budget. 

To find out if a bus is leaving from a location near you, please email the Baltimore Education Coalition.
