Adequate Funding for Weymouth Public Schools
By signing this petition, you are asking the Town of Weymouth, Massachusetts to properly fund the public school system.
Why is this important?
Since 2009, Weymouth Public Schools have either been underfunded or barely funded, based upon the minimum Net School Spending requirement as determined by the state of MA.
Since the override failure on 8/4/15, it has been reported that SouthField, which was hoped to have infused some funding into the town, would not be fully built out for another 12-14 years.
In addition, the recently released Weymouth District Review Report done by Mass.gov basically states that Weymouth has great plans and structures in place but doesn't have the staff or funds to execute them.
Although there is optimism for Weymouth’s fiscal future, it does not help the children and staff that are in school right NOW. Please show your support of properly funding the Weymouth Public School system NOW by signing this petition.
