Call for Letters to Support the Senate K-12 Education Budget

PTA/PTSA Members,

The Senate and the House of the Virginia General Assembly have passed two very different budgets for FY2011.  The Senate would fund K-12 education $278 more per student in Virginia.  The Senate and House bills have gone to a committee that will try to reconcile the two budgets.

Please, write the budget conferees requesting that they adopt the Senate's proposal for K-12 Education Funding.

The easiest way to do this is to use the Virginia PTA – Action Center Links below.  Also consider signing up for Action Alerts from the Virginia PTA regarding the Virginia General Assembly.
