Without financial support, Tisha's ability to return to law school may be at risk, despite her strength and resilience in the face of immense hardship. This campaign is not just about helping one person but about advocating for fairness and ensuring that students in similar situations have a path forward.

Students should feel that their bodies are not ground for discrimination or bias. Also, students should also feel comfortable on campus knowing that teachers are being held accountable for issuing false dress code violations willy nilly. 

Dr. Rouhollah Aghasaleh’s only crime was to stand with students in the face of police violence from the administration at the time. Dr. Aghasaleh was a voice for peace and reason throughout the process and the overall occupation was actually safer due to their presence. Standing with Palestinians that are the victims of genocide and standing with students in the face of police violence and injustice are also not crimes. We do not believe that it is right to indefinitely suspend ANYONE in this way. Please do the right thing and bring Dr. Aghasaleh back to campus! In the time that they have been gone, they have continued to do teach-ins at no charge because they are truly that committed to, and passionate, about education.  

We care about this issue because it affects our entire community. Our children are so precious and it is so important to keep them safe. We want them to feel safe and be safe. The fact that the students are learning about this threat through their friends doesn’t feel right. They should not have to be burdened by the fears associated with this type of threat. It is important for this to be addressed head on. We believe the BCSD needs to put out a statement.

We need to change the direction of this project before it’s too late to save taxpayer money and keep our children safe. 

Why Recess Matters: • Boosts Cognitive Function: Recess provides a mental break that sharpens focus and enhances learning, leading to better academic performance. • Develops Social Skills: Unstructured playtime is essential for practicing cooperation, negotiation, and conflict resolution—skills crucial for their future success. • Improves Emotional Well-being: Physical activity during recess helps reduce anxiety, manage stress, and promotes overall happiness, which is particularly important as students face increasing academic pressures. • Promotes Physical Health: Regular play during recess combats childhood obesity and supports a healthy lifestyle, setting the foundation for lifelong well-being. • Increases Attendance Rates: Schools that prioritize recess see better attendance and more engaged students, leading to a more vibrant and effective learning environment. Recess is essential for the holistic development of our children. We believe that every student at Manhattan Charter School deserves the benefits of daily recess. By reinstating recess for 5th-grade students, we can better support their cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development. We respectfully request that the administration take immediate action to restore this critical part of the school day for our 5th graders.

Creating these opportunities for families raising deaf and hard hearing children would mean every family member has a place to safely express themselves with other individuals who are in a similar situation.  Our deaf and hard of hearing children can improve their comprehension of spoken language by just adding a visual. Our deaf and hard of hearing children can build confidence in using their voices. Our deaf and hard of hearing children can grow up with more self worth due to stronger relationships with their families.  Florida Hands & Voices is a parent- professional collaborative nonprofit particularly interested in encouraging the benefits of unbiased support to families raising deaf and hard of hearing children.

If you believe that his selfless service should be honored by DPS with a building in his name, we ask that you sign this petition. There is an old saying that we should “give people their flowers while they are alive.”  This saying is so applicable here.  Help us give Mayor Bell his flowers while he is alive.

On behalf of all of Yes Prep North Central’s upperclassmen, activity time is demanded because it helps us deal with the stress that comes with school and helps us get along with our classmates more. It gives us a chance to socialize with them. Having activity time will help us be more connected, more encouraged to do well in school, help us with our mental health, and overall help us have a better school year. Also, not having activity time is putting more stress on teachers because they have to present PowerPoints to students, when other years, during the time of blazer block, we would be enjoying our time in activity time. Activity time has been a part of Yes Prep North Central since we were in 6th grade and it’s always worked well. We promise that it will continue to be that way. Overall, we, as Yes Prep North Central’s upperclassmen, believe that activity time should be granted to us.

It’s important for the well being and safety of our children. Especially all that is going on in the world it would be deficient not to do so. 

 Student Comfort and Well-being: The ability to choose what to wear can significantly impact students' comfort and well-being. If students are uncomfortable, it can affect their focus and performance in school.

It is important for the Class of 2025 to have a memorable and enjoyable final experience at their home stadium.
