How funding in our school districts should be spent

5/11/2021

Greetings Community!
 
Sending information below on behalf of the Alliance for Quality Education (AQE)

If any of you recall the advocacy surrounding "Fully Funding our schools" supporting the fight for The Campaign for Fiscal Equity.  We've shared information about this and a lot of you have filled out petition letters, help spread the word and have inquired about this to learn more.   Well in April 2021 this was successfully included in the New York State budget and we've secured significant funding for public schools this year. Billions of dollars will be invested in NYC public schools and we want to make sure parents, students, educators, and community members are able to decide how these funds are spent. We have a survey that we're sharing that allows folks to share their thoughts on how they believe the increase in funding should be prioritized. 
 
We were able to translate the survey into Spanish and would appreciate your support in sharing it to folks who speak and read Spanish. More info can be found below. The deadline is May 14th.”
 
The survey can be found here: Spanish & English
 
WE APOLOGIZE PROFUSELY FOR THE LAST MOMENTS' NOTICE, BUT TODAY AT 4pm is a Town Hall to discuss spending of these funds. 
Please spread the word, if you can not make it, follow AQE (Alliance for Quality Education) for future updates, it may be on available on their facebook page for viewing later. 

Don't miss out on a chance to have your voice heard TODAY at 4PM during our NYC Funding & Foundation Aid town hall! There's still time to register and join us: http://buff.ly/2QVWU4E
