It is essential that Virginia Beach City Council allocates sufficient funds in order to continue the current caliber of education that Virginia Beach prides itself on. City council is sacrificing jobs, quality of education, and the future of our children. Ultimately, the city of Virginia Beach will no longer be the sought after community it is today. This petition strongly encourages the Virginia Beach City Council to provide the funds necessary for the school board to overcome the budget shortfall and continue educating our students at the highest level. Please pass along this petition to your classmates, teachers, parents, friends, and neighbors.

I have been spending my evenings reading through your stories about how these budget cuts will directly impact our classrooms. It is clear that we refuse to let the quality of our children's education fade because of these short sighted decisions. I am currently compiling these experiences to present directly to the council members.

Seeing this momentum grow reminds me why I started this fight for my own children. The city council cannot ignore the families who are relying on them to do the right thing for our classrooms.

VB schools were the whole reason we moved here. Stop cutting the budget and look at the bigger picture for once.

Teachers deal with enough as it is without having to worry about their jobs being on the chopping block every single year. Pay them what theyre worth.

My daughter has 35 kids in her class right now. How is any teacher supposed to handle that? Unbelievable.

DO NOT CUT THE BUDGET. If the schools go down the property values turn to garbage too. Think about the homeowners too.
