On Saturday, Oct. 15, join parents, teachers, students and concerned citizens at the Bayside Expo Center to share ideas, strategize and organize to achieve our goal: quality public schools for every child.
The conference begins with a morning panel of knowledgeable speakers on MCAS Reform, The Struggle to Preserve Boston Schools, Organizing Parents Across America and Exposing “Astroturf” (i.e., not really grass roots) Education Groups.
Stay for morning and afternoon workshops where participants will learn important background information and then strategize on pressing educational issues including high-stakes testing, charter schools, threats to urban public schools, educating the legislature, investing in public higher education, youth organizing and the school-to-prison pipeline, and organizing parents and school committees.
