Principal's Chat - This Friday

Feeling Helpless about the Budget? Start Taking Action.
Say NO to (even more) Budget Cuts! Parents at Sherman are working hard to get a grassroots advocacy effort going among SF public school parents to stop the budget insanity - let's join them! One of the first events is an open SF Town Hall meeting on February 25 moderated by Michael Krasny, host of KQED's award-winning Forum.
We are hoping to get at least 50 Miraloma parents there and would love a standing room only house to show our policy makers that enough is enough.
Here are the specifics.
Want to get even more involved - Volunteers needed! Come to the planning meeting on Wednesday, January 20th 6pm at Sherman Elementary School (1651 Union Street).
