We need our voices to be heard in Albany! Please see the message below from our Superintendent's office:
"Our NYS advocates are making good progress on our request for additional funding for our schools to be included in the NYS budget, however we need as many voices as possible to join and support the effort. PLEASE share the message below with your entire school community and encourage them to take action and share their voice."
CALL
TO ACTION: TIME SENSITIVE
The Catholic Action Network (CAN), an arm of the New York State Catholic Conference, gives us all a larger voice in the halls of government. Through our email and social media alerts, CAN reaches tens of thousands of Catholics like you to provide educational updates on the important issues being debated and to provide you with the tools to simplify the process of contacting your elected officials.
State lawmakers in Albany are in the final weeks of adopting the state budget in which we seek funding for Catholic schools to support the academic, health, safety, and security needs of our students and staff, as well as promoting STEM instruction and reimbursing schools for mandates imposed by the state. We need your voice to help secure these funds, so please let your state Senate and Assembly representatives know this funding is important to you.
