Will our next governor make education a priority?
Here's how to help make it happen ...
Click here to sign our petition, and ask County Executive Dan Onorato and Attorney General Tom Corbett to pledge their support for strong public education - we need high standards, up to date curriculum, high quality teaching, and better assessments so we can make sure our kids are ready for the world!
Mr. Onorato has made a clear commitment to making education a priority as governor, and supports recent state reforms that are getting results. And so far during the campaign, Mr. Corbett has made a number of positive statements on public education. Campaign promises are important, but only if the eventual winner turns talk into action. We need to make sure that both these candidates know that Pennsylvania will be watching, even after the election is over.
Please take a moment to sign our petition asking the next governor to make education a priority. We need to make sure that both candidates would turn campaign rhetoric into government action on education!
And here is the other thing we need you to do: please forward this message to three friends - we need to send a powerful message that this issue matters and we want both candidates to work for our votes. Click here to invite three friends to join you in being an “education voter”.
We’ve taken some big steps forward in Pennsylvania, and now isn’t the time to turn back. Our state must continue its commitment to ensuring that every child receives a quality education. We’re seeing results, and we’ve got our leaders paying attention … we can’t let an election change all that!
Thank you,
Susan Gobreski
Executive Director
