The end of seniority based layoffs; let teacher evaluations determine.

FAU is cutting our core required classes to graduate and blaming it on the Legislative budget cuts. We have tried communicating with President Saunders, Provost Claiborne, and Dean Carter and they have all dismissed our opinons. It is time to become organized and collaborate to save our futures and be able to graduate.

This petition is to ensure that gov deal and all of our congressmen keep their hands off of our hope scholarship. Without college education our children do not have a chance in the future. College is not and should not only be for the wealthy. Keep your paws off of our scholarship program!

This petition is about forgiving existing student loans, keeping college within reach without burying the next generation of educated members of our workforce under mountains of debt. A college education should be a right to everyone not only the privilaged and should never be a tool to make a profit off the less fortunate members of society who are attempting to better their lives through education

GOAL - 1 MILLION + PEOPLE!! My name is Josh Evans. I live in Springfield, Missouri. I feel that we need to improve the ways schools and families handle their kids. I believe that schools SHOULD NOT let the kids out of the building, unless a parent or legal guardian is there waiting for them. My thought is that if parents or guardians pick up their child, a faculty member stands outside and one by one dispatches a child to exit the building. If every school in the U.S. did that, children and students would be so much safer. I'm just wanting to get this out to government, and have them MAKE A STAND and KEEP OUR KIDS SAFE. That's why I started this page, the KEEP KIDS SAFE ACT, because I want to keep kids safe and away from predators and sex offenders. This page isn't just for elementary school students -- it's for EVERY CHILD WHO IS A STUDENT -- Preschool, elementary school, middle school, & high school. Please "LIKE" this page and let's get the word out.

The amount paid toward a student loan's principal should be a tax deduction, not just the interest. This simple idea will encourage people to get an education to make America better. This idea will also put more money in the consumers' pocket and help grow our economy. Everyone with a student loan and the entire American economy will benefit from this plan.

Governor Malloy's agenda is that of coprorate bankers, charter school investors, and business people who are motivated by money and who have no real interest in improving education

We need to preserve the public education. It's the cheapest and best way for children to get an education. Vouchers on the other hand, depend on the profit motive to deliver education to our children. Companies and executives are the ones who profit from a private system, while money is drained and diverted from quality teachers and student's needs. Everyone in my family were in the public school system and did fine. My son graduated Rutgers Summa as a material science engineer.Similarly, my wife and I attended the public school system straight through college. We must make public school system stronger and not weaken it with voucher systems. We must demand that our governor end his policies of demeaning public schools and get vouchers and privitized schools out of our education system.

Update the Individuals with Disability Education Act (IDEA) as it pertains to Autism spectrum disorder today.

Due to recent financial cuts, the university has decided to cut courses immediately, starting this SUMMER. The university has cut all graduate level courses with enrollments of less than eleven students, last summer. A similar decision has been made for undergraduate level courses with enrollments of less than twenty-four students. Some of these courses are apart of critical shortage areas within education. Some are only offered one semester a year. Cutting these classes will prevent many students from graduating on time or at all. We are simply asking the university to reconsider their decision and implement cuts only after listening to suggestions from department leaders and identifying each departments specific needs. Students please sign and explain your specific situation. If you have any suggestions to assist the university with solving this problem please comment as well.

Saved from closure for good cause by Emergency Financial Manager, Robert Bobb, DDSD is now slated for closure by new EFM, Roy Roberts. His plan calls for removing the deaf and hard of hearing students from the school built with federal, state and local funds specifically to provide full ADA accommodations and enhanced learning environment to meet their unique language and communication needs, so the building can be "repurposed" as administrators see fit. Students will be scattered to other schools that cannot provide such an environment or the critical mass of same language peers recommended by current research and best practices in the field. DDSD needs to remain the anchor of placements for deaf children and parents need to be allowed to choose it as an option. (http://detroitdayschoolforthedeaf.com)
