Contact your representatives

The following items were part of a UTLA chapter bulletin posted to Garfield teachers this week:

UTLA is calling on all Garfield Faculty to contact the LAUSD Board Members, the Superintendent, UTLA leadership, and local representatives to voice opposition to the Resolution of “A NEW WAY AT LAUSD” proposed by Yolie Flores Aguilar, Monica Garcia, and Richard Vladovic.  This proposition will “sell out” up to 50 new schools and hundreds of “underperforming” ones (such as Garfield) to private entities. 

***A SUBSTITUTE MOTION has been proposed by Ms. LaMotte and Mr. Zimmer*** Please visit the Board of Education at www.lausd.net and READ the Board Meeting Agenda for August 25th!!!!! 

The Board needs 4 of the 7 votes to pass the resolution.

Please call and/or email the contacts below, especially the swing votes (Galatzan and Martinez) letting them know THAT YOU OPPOSE THE RESOLUTION BUT SUPPORT THE SUBSTITUTE MOTION!!!!
