Re: Engineering and Robotics program in danger
Kind and polite e-mails with high-quality reasoning would probably help. Remember to focus on what the school board needs to hear: How to solve their problem (not enough money) and what the educational benefits are. Angry or illogical/disorganized messages may hurt the cause. (Now you know why they teach English Writing in school!)
I'd also like anyone reading this to consider such a letter to their OWN school board, simply explaining what the benefits of technology education are for the community. Or, better still, go to a board meeting and take 4 minutes to educate the board.
At 1676, we are grateful for the support our BoE gives us. They know in great detail the benefits of the program, and they support it enthusiastically because of that. We are also thankful that we don't NEED much from them, since we have many wonderful sponsors, but express our gratitude to the board for their financial support anyway.
