Save Texas Schools 2012 Rally at the Capitol on March 24!

One year ago, over 13,000 people gathered in Austin to speak out against budget cuts to public education. It was the largest capitol rally in modern Texas history! However, our legislators chose not to listen. Now, we need to come back before the primary elections to let them know, “We’re watching, We Remember and We VOTE!” It’s important that every candidate know that education is an issue that they CAN’T IGNORE!

Make plans now to join us in an even larger rally. Say NO to underfunding our schools! Say NO to overcrowded classrooms and overworked teachers! Say NO to millions spent on an out-of-control testing system! Say YES to educating our children for the future!

The STS March begins at 11 am at 12th and Trinity. Rally begins at noon on the south steps of the Capitol.

Feedback from Attendees at Past Conferences:

“This was a wonderful event. I learned a lot of the smoke and mirrors used by legislators to convince us the budget cuts were not that bad. Really appreciate the representatives who took time to come and talk to us. Let’s organize an event for my area!”

“I learned so much… thank you all for taking the time to organize an informative, positive, and proactive conference that supports the public education learning communities in our great state!”

“I’ve gotta say, the conference was informative and very well done. I enjoyed myself and met many others of like mind. Hopefully all who attended will be able to bring back to their communities information and techniques to protect public education. Thanks to everybody who facilitated, great job. Our cause is just and our will must be strong for the children.”

“There is so much dedication and hard work in the Save Texas Schools’ crowd. Really impressive. Gives me a sense that we can do this for our kids. Thanks to everyone who put such effort into bringing this for the community.”
