Stop Bridgeport's current illegal Board of Education from making policies that cannot be undone by future boards. We can wait 90 days until our democratically elected members of Bridgeport's next Board of Education return. Allow our LEGAL Board of Education to determine whom to choose to run Bridgeport's schools without being stuck with unsound policies.
Why is this important?
Bridgeport's illegally appointed Board of Education, will vote tonight to extend the contract for Paul Vallas, who is a part-time, interim Superintendent of Schools and will lock his contract in place to the cost of $500,000 plus. In addition, they will be electing a Financial Oversight Committee and agree to accept a loan from the state which will take away Bridgeport's residents democratic rights by giving the State Commissioner of Education the ability to choose our future Superintendent of Schools.
Please urge our elected officials to wait 90 days until our democratically elected members of Bridgeport's next Board of Education return. Allow our LEGAL Board of Education to determine whom to choose to run Bridgeport's schools without being stuck with unsound policies.
