PEACE HOUSE

Following up on an earlier Massachusetts Peace Action Education Fund Conference will be gathering to explore paths to protect the federal budget supporting public schools, and continuing to try to reach out to parents and grandparents among our Peace Action affiliates and their local allies.

The proposed termination of the Dept of Education will weaken other school programs. Though organizations representing teachers and educators, including NEA, AFT and AAUP, have come together to resist the proposed cuts,, it remains difficult to reach parents, who generally lack statewide organizations. Their local school district organizations rarely address the federal budget.
