Wake Up HES

In case you missed it yesterday afternoon, a group of concerned parents were passing out orange flyers to parents in the HES pick-up lines.

Here is the full text of the flyer:

WAKE UP HES

It is time for HES families to make a stand.

Whether or not your child is grandfathered, their continuing education at HES is at stake. Once the Orange County School Board succeeds in depopulating HES through their current plan, the Board will have all it needs to justify closing HES and ending the year round program.

There are things we can do:

• Sign up for free or reduced lunch. If your family qualifies, even if you still intend to send in lunch money, please sign up. Then sign up again at the beginning of the new school year. According to OCS Administration, free and reduced lunch numbers will be the measure of diversity.
• Inquire about and donate to Attention Orange, the major grassroots effort to legally challenge the Board. Attention Orange has retained an attorney who is aggressively moving forward. You may donate anonymously and electronically by visiting http://savehes.blogspot.com and selecting "Donate." You may use credit, debit or your PayPal account to donate directly. Next week Attention Orange will hold a meeting. To find out more, please submit inquiries to attentionorange@yahoo.com .
• Share this information with others.

Together we can make a difference.

Together we can save our school for our children and those to come.
