SOS Michigan Rally for Public Education – March 10th

March 2, 2010 by Debbie Leave a Comment

Date:  Wednesday, March 10, 2010

Time:  8:00am – 3:00pm
Location:March on the Capitol

Michigan is making draconian cuts to public education. Complacency is not an option. Our state’s future is at stake.

March to the State Capitol and hear a call to action from Chair of the SOS! Task Force Tom White. Attendees will have the opportunity to march from the Lansing Center to the State Capitol where a rally for school funding will commence. Afterward, attendees will have the opportunity to lobby legislators in the Capitol (tentative – depending on session schedule).

In November we had about 12 parents from Royal Oak attend the rally. If we are going to have an impact we need to quadruple that number. There is power in numbers – if we are seen and heard in Lansing – change can come!

I plan on making the trek so if anyone would like to carpool, let me know by responding via this email address. Please consider joining us. We cannot stand idly by and watch our legislators fail our schools and our kids.
