"No Good Deed Goes Unpunished"

Read the timeline here of litigation related to Bullis Charter School in Los Altos. Sit down before you read it - dizziness will ensue!

Read here about Los Altos School District parents' reaction to learning that hundreds of their students will be displaced and a school site closed to accommodate Bullis, which educates the children of Silicon Valley tech execs.

We must defeat the Ross Valley Charter, because, if approved, it could drain millions of dollars over the next years from our local school district, displace students, and further divide our Ross Valley community.

Our Ross Valley Schools are great, and deserve our support!!

The new charter school scheme: This is how GOP and privatizers have bled Pennsylvania schools

Read more here to learn about how public school teachers in one district are now working without pay due to Pennsylvania charter schools.

According to the article, "the district’s ongoing financial problems are because of the state’s funding formula, specifically what the school district is required to pay to charter schools. The school district receives about $16,000 for children with learning disabilities from the state, but it is required to give the charter schools $40,000 for each student listed with a learning disability.”

Let's shut the door on this nonsense ever coming to Ross Valley!

Let MCOE know that you oppose the RVC petition by emailing the MCOE Trustees c/o Superintendent Mary Jane Burke: marincoe@marinschools.org

Include the following: 

1. RVC/MAP is no different than current RVSD programs, which are also aligned with Common Core and project based;
2. MAP has a long-standing history of discrimination which they will take with them;
3. Their financial projections are highly questionable due to unrealistic enrollment projections and an inaccurate assessment of the MAP waitlist.
