Calling All Supporters of Public Education in NH

The effort by Sununu and his Ed Commissioner, Edelblut, to starve public education in deference to private educational opportunities has not gone away.

See the Concord Monitor editorial from 1-17-19 entitled: Edelblut’s diagnosis of what ails N.H. education is way off.

Your support for public education is most important even if you can manage only one email or phone call each year.
Thank you, Margaret Campbell
Chair, UVD Education committee
