***National Mobilization for Great Public Schools - Wednesday, September 22nd*** Nothing is more important than educating our children. But across the country, we're failing to provide children with the basics. Clearly, education must become a higher priority across this nation. As a new school year begins, it's time for Americans to mobilize to meet the challenge of educating the next generation. This Wednesday, September 22nd, be a part of the largest mobilization for public schools ever! Across the country, teachers, parents, students, and concerned citizens will meet in house parties, community centers, church basements, and class rooms to talk about the state of our schools and take action to ensure that all of our children get the best education we can deliver. Visit http://lccr.convio.net/site/R?i=ueTWe-ylpGMkkXtYQtUwLw.. for more information. Over 2,700 teachers, parents, students and concerned citizens have already registered to host house parties. Join them by hosting your own party or attending one already scheduled in your neighborhood. Join them to discuss the challenges our education system faces and begin to develop real solutions for our children's future. For support to make hosting a party of any size easy, or to attend a party near you, visit http://lccr.convio.net/site/R?i=2wRApRSqehUkkXtYQtUwLw.. . The National Education Association, Campaign for America's Future and more than 40 allied groups have joined forces to sponsor the community meetings and follow-up activities that will include a petition drive and September 29th call-in to Congress day to urge lawmakers to support increased funding for public education. Join the effort! Learn more about public schools, how to help nationally, and how to get involved in your local schools!
