Wow. I just sent an email to my school board yesterday in support of the many good things in the proposed budget.

This will have a very negative effect on many school district budgets in Virginia and on our kids' education.

For some people, there’s nothing better than singing in a choir. For some people, there’s nothing better than playing in a music ensemble. For some people, there’s nothing better than making music with others. For some people, there’s nothing better or more important than music.

Anyone want to stop flunking third graders today, and focus on #literacy supports instead? #miched #mileg

Strategically that plays into the plan to undermine #publicschools
