Yeah yeah, I know you guys hate education cuz it involves school and all that.
But, this is important!
This Friday (I mean the 13th) is Pink Friday!
That sounds fun do you think?
NO, THAT DAY (Ironically on FRIDAY the 13TH) IS WHEN ANY EDUCATORS GET A SLIP SAYING THAT THEY’RE BEING LAID OFF. I do not know if the slip is pink.
But, as you know, the economy is horrible (Yeah, I’m tired of hearing about the economy too…). So some states are going to have to cut the education money. And the education is clearly important to us.
CA is cutting more then 11 billion dollars from the budget. So my district is cutting about 2 billion dollars from our budget. And that means lay offs, and possibly no band, choir, art programs, any program that isn’t required for the state. (Yes, PE, science, history, math and Language arts cannot be cut as they are required.)
Now, Pink Friday (Again, ironically on Friday the 13th), is happening very soon. So we need to stand up for this.
One way is to participate in your school’s meetings about the budget to stand up for it. Or have your parents go.
Another for kids is to do a petition even though it probably won’t help.
Fundraisers… it’ll help a little but not too much because then it’s hard to get to a goal of 2 million dollars….
THIS FRIDAY, EVEN IF YOUR A BOY, WEAR PINK! TO SUPPORT THIS DAY, THAT VERY DAY WILL CHANGE THE NEXT SCHOOL YEAR TO EVERYONE WHETHER YOU THINK IT DOESN’T OR NOT.
That very day is incredibly important. And it’s coming soon. I truely want everyone to learn something rather then the 5 main subjects you guys need to know. It’s not going to help your lives any better. Music helps make you smarter as many know, and I mean playing music not listening.
Wear pink on Friday the 13th to support!
