 Please write to Governor Granholm again!

Four months into our school year, the State of Michigan cut $12 million in funding from the Dearborn Public Schools.  We had just finished cutting $10 million from our budget over this past summer.  The mid-year cuts forced us to make mid-year reductions of 287 staff members, an action that we have never done before.  We are the only district that all together lost a combination of “per pupil” funding, “20j Hold Harmless” funding, and “31a at-risk” funding.  On top of these cuts we funnel $15 million more tax dollars to the State of Michigan than we get back every year.  This has got to stop!!  We implore you to contact Governor Granholm and/or any and all contacts that you may have to plead our case.  Our district has been severely impacted by the recent educational funding cuts and we are asking Governor Granholm to restore at least the 20j and 31a funding, which will amount to $6.5 million, as we have already taken a hit on the “per pupil” allowance this year and will again for the 2010-11 school year. 

 

At this time we need everyone’s support as Governor Granholm works on the State’s school aid budget for next year.  Attached is a letter that can be sent with your signature.  PLEASEHELP!

Is your child tired all of the time?

 

 

Something to consider regarding cell phones and other technology:  Students have reported being very tired to some of their teachers.  Upon being asked why, they explained that they are up late texting and playing computer games.  I had a similar situation with my daughter in high school.  I never dreamed she would be texting in the middle of the night but she was.  So, she had to turn her cell phone off and put it on my dresser by 9pm every night.  If your child appears tired, consider whether or not texting, playing on the computer or other things are keeping them up at night.  Mrs. Peterson
