Parents Rally to Save Duval Schools

daltonagency — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 15:19:41 +0000

Some very concerned parents and local business leaders are making some noise around Jacksonville, hoping to convince Florida lawmakers to stop cutting funds for public schools and to gain more local control of school budgets for public school officials. The name of this grassroots movement is Save Duval Schools. Right now, Tallahassee mandates where the education budget is spent, not the school officials. Former news anchor at WJXT, Deborah Gianoulis, is helping lead the new effort. Florida’s school system regularly finishes last in rankings of state spending on public education. Appalling, we know. Dalton Agency is proud to be a part of this movement. We built the Save Duval Schools website and are also in charge of PR. If Duval County Public Schools have touched you in anyway, we think this is a cause worth your time to read more about, or maybe even donate to! It brings a whole new meaning to the phrase “the children are our future.” Read more about this initiative here, here, and here and visit the official website, saveduvalschools.org for more information.
