Please give 5 minutes to make a difference!!!

All you need to do:

1) Your name, grade and school of your children

2) One or two concerns regarding the cuts

Some of the issues affected by the cuts:
· Class size requirements but State not offering funds to pay teachers
· Resource teachers for special needs students (IEPs will not be in compliance)
· Unfunded mandates
. Campus security -- no resource officers
· Extracurricular activities
· Cleanliness of facilities and illness
· Teacher layoffs, salaries and planning time

3) This is unacceptable!

Not happy about the priority of education in state (FL ranks 50th in education spending per capita);
we won't accept our children's future being affected; or our children are the future of our country, they should be our first priority.

4) Please do not cut the education budget

5) Sign and put your address and or phone number
