Stop telling us that we aren’t hurting enough. We aren’t broken enough.
Our children are being deprived of their civil right. And we will not be silent until it is fixed.
THIS IS EDUCATIONAL RACISM
ARE WE TOO DIVERSE TO MATTER?
#EquityForOssining
@BrianLehrer@toddkaminsky@DavidCarlucci The flaw in the Gov’s remarks is that #Ossining follows the Princeton Model-we don’t have neighborhood schools. The $ is distributed equally among all schools. We are in CRISIS & were told today no tiers will be created for us, letting the systemic educational racism to continue.
Good morning Albany! The Ossining community is very excited to see you today @ShelleyBMayer@SenatorHarckham@SandyGalef
It might be a good time to check those couch cushions for spare change, because we won’t stop until our children get fairly funded. #EquityforOssining
“History, despite it’s wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again.” Maya Angelou @NYGovCuomo don’t repeat years of hurt due to frozen aid. Be courageous! Make it right, right now #HarmedSuburban5
Our kids are standing up for the quality education they deserve. Sign the petition, and tell lawmakers to fund our school districts fairly! https://t.co/KRJTyTJbU3 #HarmedSuburbanFive@NYGovCuomo@AndreaSCousins
@CarlHeastie @AndreaSCousins@NYGovCuomo Plz review the enacted 2018-2019 foundation aid #'s. https://t.co/pgccWmWWvg Take note of column "E". Notice @OssiningSchools at the bottom at 43%? Now, please take a scroll to the other end and note Mahopac at 96%, Scarsdale at 134%,
Mamaroneck 149%, Chappaqua 160%,Bedford 206%, Pocantico Hills 309%—a few of the 517 school districts that are ALREADY at 80% or more of their Foundation Aid Funding. 🤯 pls explain how @OssiningSchools continuesto be the most underfunded districts @NYGovCuomo@DavidCarlucci
@NYGovCuomo do you hear our amazing superintendent talking about having to cut dozens of teachers and staff?? WE CAN’T LOSE ANYONE! We have increased our student body, and need MORE staff. Do the right thing.

Children regardless of zip code should have the same educational opportunities. This is a civil rights issue. Your decisions about funding will forever change our children’s lives @NYGovCuomo create a tier for @OssiningSchools #HarmedSuburban5
Fully funding all districts needs to be the narrative not rearranging funding among students in already under funded districts. Thanks for fighting to change the story @ShelleyBMayer !
This is how much NY owes each student in these districts in Foundation Aid funding after cutting back to save $$ according to data from @AQE_NY . @ABC7NY@Oss4FairFunding@PortChesterUFSD @OssiningSup @WestburySup
Touring the 2nd grade Hall of Fame at Brookside school in #Ossining and saw this nice project on @NYGovCuomo. Governor: our children see you as a leader to look up to. Please don’t let them down! Create a tier to give @OssiningSchools the funding we deserve!#EquityForOssining
