SUMMARY:Statewide “Call” to Action for Public Education - January 
 25th!
DESCRIPTION:For a pdf version of the Statewide “Call” to Action fo
 r Public Education Guide, CLICK HERE.\n \nGuide for the Statewide “
 Call” to Action for Public Education\n1. Click HERE to look up your 
 legislators’ contact info:\nGovernor Tom Corbett:  Phone:(717) 787-
 2500\n2. Call them and, in your own words, say something like (pick a 
 few or mention all points):\n\nEvery kid must have an opportunity to l
 earn and good schools make stronger communities; education is a human 
 right. \n\nStop these drastic budget cuts and rising class sizes: we 
 need a better budget in 2012.\n\nI am concerned (outraged, distressed)
  about rising class sizes, loss of support programs and Kindergarten (
 arts, sports, science, teaching aids). [If you are aware of specific c
 uts in your district, mention them!]  Education is my top priority is
 sue as a taxpayer and voter – a responsible community with strong va
 lues educates all of our children and makes it a priority – that is 
 just how we ought to roll [My 11 year old thinks we should say that, s
 o I told her I’d work it in].\n\nOppose vouchers, they don’t work 
 and we must take the steps necessary to support struggling schools for
  all kids in them.\n\nWe need to address special education issues.\n\n
 Support a good funding formula that is fair and provides appropriate r
 esources for all students to get a solid foundation for the future.\n\
 n\nLet them know you plan to follow these issues and see what happens.
