If you care about education in our community, here are two ways to make your voice heard.
The ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ is partnering with the ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ Ward 6 office and City Councilman Steve Kozachik to co-sponsor a forum, “Public Education in ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ & Pima County: What’s Next?†on Monday, March 26, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Randolph North Golf Course Copper Room, 600 S. Alvernon Way.
The forum is free, and open to the public.
Representatives from the Metropolitan Education Commission, Strong Start ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥, Pima County Schools Superintendent’s Office, Southern ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ Leadership Council and First Things First will have a brief panel discussion, followed by a community conversation facilitated by Catherine Tornbom from the Center for Community Dialogue, a program of Our Family Services.
Also, we invite you to take part in this month’s installment of the ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥/Strongpoint Opinion Research Community Poll, which focuses on early-childhood education. In addition to measuring local opinion on the current state of early childhood education in the ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ area, it includes a quiz to test your knowledge in the area — and we guarantee you’ll learn something as you read and answer the questions.
