Reminder: School Board Meeting Tomorrow Night!

Don't forget that there is a school board meeting tomorrow night (Tuesday) at 6pm at the Government Services Building in Bunnell.

We'd like to get everyone who can come to show up to show their support to the school board for having a parent vote on the implementation of uniforms. This vote will protect both the parents who are for and against uniforms. It will protect the rights of parents who are against uniforms from being railroaded by a flawed school board process from not having their opinions heard. And it will protect parents who are pro-uniforms from investing in that process and then possibly discovering that too many parents are not complying with the policy, making the uniforms pointless.

The board keeps pointing to the fact that so many other Florida districts have uniforms as a reason for Flagler to have them. So why aren't they following the same process as those districts?

Please show up to ask the board to let the parents make the decision, which is how this issue has been handled in most other Florida school districts!
