PARENTS MATTER: SCHOOL CHOICE ACTION ALERT!!!
WATCH THE STAFF OF THE CHARTER COMMISSION TELL COMMISSIONERS TO DISREGARD PARENTS, TEACHERS AND STUDENTS PLEAS TO KEEP THEIR SCHOOL OPEN
Dear Fellow Parent:
Idaho leaders talk a big game on school choice, but right now Governor Brad Little’s Charter School Commission is trying to disregard parents, and quietly close a charter school that would kick hundreds of at-risk students out of their current school with no other options, and strip parents of their choice in their child’s education.
THEY THINK PARENTS DON’T MATTER. In fact, the taxpayer funded Charter School Commissioners were urged by their staff, in a public hearing, to remember that PARENTS PLEAS DON’T MATTER in their decision. They were cautioned to DISREGARD the hundreds of emotional appeals submitted by parents and teachers that love their school– and close down the school of choice based on test scores alone.
The biggest impact of closing this important charter school will be felt by autistic, low income, special education, at-risk students and all parents throughout Idaho who have picked a school of choice for their child.
We believe PARENTS MATTER and these families need your help.
Please use this form to email Governor Little’s staff and urge him to stand by his commitment to make School Choice a top priority for parents.
Very Respectfully,
Tom LeClaire
President
