June 4th Protest

Join PS 24K, PS 15K, PS 30M, PS 197M, Jamaica High School, Prospect Heights International High School, PS 123M, PS 193K and a growing list of school communities as we protest budget cuts and layoffs that will happen around the city! The plan is for interested school communities to protest before school this Friday, June 4th. Bring your signs and banners and get the word out that our public school system is being ROBBED! The Department of Education just approved 5 million dollars in teacher recruitment funds the same time they are eliminating 6000 positions! The charter cap was just raised and and while people were told it was to be eligible for Race to the Top funds, those funds ARE NOT for relieving our budget crisis. If your school community is interested,or you have any questions please email Sam at sam@nycore.org.

June 4th City-Wide School-Community Based Protests: No School-Based Budget Cuts or School Layoffs

June 4th City-Wide School-Community Based Protests:  No School-Based Budget Cuts or School Layoffs
Parents, Students, and School Workers at PS 15 Demand Mayor Bloomberg and Chancellor Klein Prioritize Spending for Public Education!

Public Education in NYC has faced over 500 million in cuts since 2009. The Mayor must seek other revenues instead of cutting our schools and other important services that are the lifeblood of our communities!

Bailouts for Banks and Wall Street but NOT FOR OUR KIDS? SAVE OUR SCHOOLS... STOP THE FORCES WHO SEEK TO DISMANTLE AND DESTROY PUBLIC EDUCATION!
