Don’t forget that after Bevin stacked the KY Board of Ed with his pro-charter school supporters, they forced out Commissioner of Education Pruitt and then appointed Wayne Lewis, who immediately led the charge to take over JCPS. #badforourkids
Learn about Interim Commissioner of Education Wayne Lewis’ many connections to the charter school lobby. If he became the administrator of JCPS, he would be in a position to act on his agenda.
A state takeover of JCPS would sideline the local school board that citizens elect every 2 years. Instead we would be stuck w/ an all-powerful appointed administrator from Frankfort with a political agenda. No more checks and balances. #badforourkids
The proposed state takeover of JCPS threatens all the progress that’s been made so far by Superintendent Pollio. It will take us backward! Email the Kentucky Board of Education right now and tell them you oppose the state takeover. https://t.co/nwCossJA19
Bevin wants to replace our public school system with charter schools and private school vouchers. He is using a state takeover to attack Kentucky’s largest school district. His takeover attempt is really about ideology.
Academies of Louisville is a program that helps prepare students for the more than 17,000 open jobs in Louisville that are ready to be filled. The JCPS school board & Superintendent Pollio are turning JCPS around.
People advocating for a state takeover seem to think that it’s a magic wand that will solve the difficult obstacles of poverty and institutional racism. #wishfulthinking
Under a state takeover of JCPS an appointed administrator could raise your taxes without any input from the community? Don’t like it? Too bad, they are appointed and there's nothing you can do about it. Sign our petition to oppose the takeover: https://t.co/oExYVABGJH
In 2017, Interim Commissioner Wayne Lewis helped write the legislation that authorized charter schools in Kentucky. And now he’s able to make decisions about our public schools. Something seems suspicious...
When you don't like the direction JCPS were headed you can vote out the school board. Under a state takeover you’d be out of luck and stuck with an unaccountable administrator appointed by Frankfort.
On September 10th we’re rallying Frankfort to show support for JCPS students. We’re going to make it crystal clear that we’re against a state takeover of our school system. RSVP: https://t.co/f645X1woCv
