I would never be where I am today if I wasn't given the opportunity to attend Collegaite Academy. Closing that school would be a tragedy.

I can only hope and pray that the Republican leaders in the House and Senate understand the gravity of our situation.

I am currently a sophomore and if the schools did close that means after all my hard work at collegiate I wouldn't be able to graduate from the school I love so much. Our schools NEED funds.

The Erie schools need proper funding and need their fair share. PA has not raised state taxes in years. Even though I pay a lot of tax I would not mind of the state raised the rate a small amount so that our schools are properly funded. It seems that we pay more attention to older folks (who can vote) than to our young people.

This is absurd. I'm not even from Erie and I find this unacceptable. What is wrong with people?!?!

This is ridiculous. My kids' education and future is dependent upon The Erie school district getting proper funding from the state. Take the lottery proceeds instead of giving it to seniors. Children are the future, not old folks!

Erie School District has presented to us parents, the possibility of closing all four of our public high schools. They are presenting cutting any and all arts, music, sports programs, even lunches.
This is a travesty and our Erie community needs to have funding from the state. Our kids deserve better than what has been given to them.
Please help the Erie School District

Everyone has a right to quality public education. Everyone. And quality means adequate funding and not being pushed off to the next closest district.

As a graduate and being apart of the ESD since 1st grade, i know of the difference my education has made in my life. The teachers have shaped me into a future educator. I have 3 younger siblings 2 in high school and 1 in elementary. We need to give the education they are deserve to succeed and become doctors or lawyers. Safe the ESD!
FUND OUR SCHOOLS
Find our future! Educate our children
