We oppose the new Montessori elementary school that will soon present a charter petition to the SC City School Board. This petition will first go to its founders. See our website: savescschools.wordpress.com for more information and many reasons to sign. Pass it on! PLEASE TYPE IN YOUR CITY - if you only put the zip code, it may auto-fill inaccurately. Thank you!

Rye Friends, December's failed bond was a Call to Action. Please help preserve our property values and give your voice to the thousands of young people in our community whose education will be compromised if we don’t pass the Bond. Every vote counts and your signature will help mobilize others. By signing this "petition letter", you agree to have your name printed as a signature in support of the Rye City School Bond and you understand that your name along with 100's of others will be printed in a local ad that will feature this letter. Sincerely, Friends of Rye City Schools P.S.

Port Washington School District has proposed cutting 20 sports teams and 65 club advisors in this year's budget. Tell the Board of Education and the Administration to restore funding to all sports and clubs.

Please sign this to get congress to allow people with student loans to refinance the loan at current interest rates as compared to the 20 year or 30 year mortgage rate.

Governor Cuomo has repeatedly stated that he wants to advocate for New York public school students. To do that effectively, he needs to hear from their parents!

SC has cut more from education (24.1%) than any other state. Now we are running a budget surplus of almost a billion dollars. For the last four years, teachers have not been paid the salaries they were promised when they accepted their positions. Gov. Haley wants to cut education by $80 million, leave salaries frozen, and use $62 million of the surplus for a corporate tax cut. SC House of Reps has agreed to leave us two years behind on our salary schedules. Meanwhile, we'll pay 4.6% more for health premiums, and lose 1% of salary to correct decades of pension mismanagement. Tell the Legislature to do more to honor SC's commitment to its teachers. Also contact them directly at scstatehouse.gov. Be sure to contact both House and Senate. For more tools and resources, contact [email protected]

The gouging of students has gone too far! Sign the petition and demand that colleges stop increasing the cost of college and stop Gov. Nixon from continually under-funding higher education.

Dear Atlanta Citizen, We are joining together to let the City of Atlanta know as well as the Atlanta Board of Education that we are desiring the following: 1. To table the Demographic Survey in it's regards to close our historic SW Atlanta schools. 2. To redetermine redistricting of the school system that is propotionate to all zones (where it is equal). 3. To ensure that all of the APS schools receive resources needed i.e. being fully staffed (teachers, admin staff, etc). 4. To ensure that all of the APS schools are high performing schools. 5. To ensure that all high schools have intact feeder patterns. 6. To recommend that the closing of any schools in SW Atlanta or building of any new schools in North Atlanta are tabled until we fully use all the facilities in APS we currently have. 7. To increase the level of rigor and instruction with all school programs so parents will send their children to their neighborhood schools and not across town. 8. To ensure that all school structures are safe. 9. To ensure that schools offer summer and after school programs or work in conjunction with local YMCA's in the neighborhoods. 10. To ensure that equality for all schools is reached to it's highest potential and that we aren't solely dependent on one area of the city for success & we look to all schools of APS to be successful.

Arizona State student Eric Haywood started a petition on Change.org protesting the college's high tuition fees. In response, Arizona State has now blocked access to all of Change.org! Censoring students Internet access is outrageous -- especially when it's blocking something of key public interest. A huge public outcry will force Arizona State to reverse their policy and let people visit Change.org again. Sources: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/josh-levy/arizona-state-censors-cha_b_1253155.html

Last fall during the debt crisis, Congress decided to eliminate Federally Subsidized Loans to Graduate Students. Graduate education gives American workers the edge they need to compete in the global marketplace. Ask Congress to make an investment in the future of our country by restoring these necessary loans.

Dear USD 259 Resident: The boundary proposals for the new northeast schools do not provide for a K-8 school or a comprehensive high school as promised in the 2008 bond election. Residents understand the significant cuts in funding from the State of Kansas, but are encouraging USD259 with the following recommendations to work together to fulfill the commitment of the 2008 bond election. 1. Support Supposal 4 for the K-5 boundary and develop a plan to expand the elementary to a K-8 school as promised; 2. Reserve spots for students residing near the new high school to attend the magnet program being relocated to the new school that would address overcrowding at Heights and develop a plan to expand to a comprehensive high school to serve students in this area as promised. If you agree with these recommendations, please complete this VERY simple on-line support petition. Thank you for your support!

Ms. Eberhard will not agree to renew Ms. Germer's and Mr. Sobolewski's contracts. They are one of the best teachers that MLKAMS has ever had, so why not renew their contract out of all the teachers? We're calling for everyone that wants to keep these 2 amazing teachers at our school. Thank you.
