The Save Our Schools campaign raised $1,517,201.68 in 60 days!
Together we successfully restored 19.75 positions!
Thanks to our community's perseverance and commitment to public education, the following positions will return in the Fall, dramatically improving the quality of education for our children:
- 9.5 Elementary Classroom Teachers
- 2 Secondary Classroom Teachers
- 1.75 Secondary Counselors
- 2.5 Elementary Music Teachers
- 4 Elementary Library Coordinators
This, combined with the estimated 10 positions replaced with anticipated Federal funding, means our children will have smaller class size, secondary counselors, a fully-restored elementary music program, and libraries open every day of the week at each elementary school.
Bravo to each and every one of you who found a way to participate, whether through a financial contribution, an in-kind contribution or the extraordinary gift of your time. This would not have happened without you!
“If I've learned anything from the last 60 days, it's that we are stronger and more powerful when we work together.”
