Community Discussion on Education

Family, the time for discussion is NOW.

What is happening to the education of our children?

School closures…
The rise of charter and private voucher programs…
Decreases in state and federal funding for neighborhood schools…

These changes are reshaping the future of public education — and the future of our children.

This is not just an education issue.
It is a community issue.

Join concerned parents, educators, leaders, and community members for a powerful, solution-focused conversation about where we are — and where we must go next.

We are bringing together voices from multiple perspectives to help us understand the challenges, explore options, and identify actionable solutions.

Your voice matters. Your experience matters. Your presence matters.
