Press Conference at Noon Today for New Public School Group
A new group has formed for the protection of Washington State public schools. It is - not surprisingly - called "Protect Our Public Schools."
They are having a formal announcement/press conference today at noon at the Seattle Center Armory, Room 311 (formerly the Center House at Seattle Center). They are encouraging all who can to attend. (Room 311 is balcony level on the west side of the building across from the glass elevator.)
Protect Our Public Schools is affiliated with Parents Across America.
I'll put up their website as soon as I have the link available.

Yes for 1240 was simply a front for rich people and their sycophants (Liv Finne, Shannon Campion, Sara Morris, et al) to increase their power, not improve education....
Neither I nor anyone else who was part of this effort was aware of the fact that there was another group that had used that name several years ago.
No, we are not part of the evil union as some of you like to portray people who work hard to protect their rights to work a 5 day work week, are paid fairly for what they do and can take off of work when they or a family member are sick and not live in fear of losing their jobs. No we're not receiving money from any union or anyone else for that matter.
We are truly a grassroots organization with members who understand that we already have proven programs in place and need to focus on what is successful in education and not allow others to come in and make a buck off of our children in the shadows of little to no oversight by the public.
That said, we have decided to change the name of the organization so that there is no confusion in terms of who we are.
Thanks for the heads up.
