Grant our public schools the foundation aid they need to guarantee students a quality education.
Why is this important?
Foundation Aid NYS funding for public schools is woefully inadequate. We have had enough of huge class sizes and cutbacks to programming because our Governor does not see education as a priority in our state. NYS has a tax cap and schools cannot raise the revenue they need by increasing taxes. The deficit caused by continual underfunding has caused schools like mine to lay off teachers, administrators, and support staff and increase class sizes. Sign this petition to ask Governor Cuomo to do his job and grant students their right to a quality education.
