H539 - Charter School Funding

House Members Are Home For The Weekend, Please Contact Them About H539

Charter advocates expect the H539- Charter School Funding bill to move in the House next week!  This bill will help even the local funding levels between charter and conventional students. 

Please call or email any members of the state House of Representatives that you know personally between now and Monday 

afternoon. Ask the members of your school's community to do the same.

Ask them to vote "Yes to concur on H539."

There is nothing more effective to our cause than the voice of a familiar advocate. You can bet the other side is calling them.   

Click Here for a summary of H539

Three points to make....

• Everything on the summary list used to be shared with charters. Look at how many items will still not be shared with charter schools even if the bill passes. We have compromised and and compromised! 

• Our schools are asking for only 30-40% of what was taken from them in 2010. That equates to about $8.80 per conventional student and $120 per charter student. 

• Nothing will be taken from an individual conventional school; Not PTO money, not band booster money, not tuition, not renting the auditorium, not before/after school care fees. Nothing!

• Charter schools DO NOT receive any funds from state lottery. So getting closer to a fair portion of local funds would help.

Heart and Soles 5K - Change of Plans

Please help get Bill 539 passed!

Parents and friends,
Please contact a representative and ask them to vote today for HB 539! House Bill 539 restores approximately 30 - 40% of restricted local funding to charter schools. For some of you that could be $200-$300 per child!

Find more info in the message below

Good morning Forsyth and Wilkes County charter school parents,

 

Today,  Please reach out to your representative and be sure to ask them if they will vote yes (concur) on House Bill 539. 

We are in the final stages of getting House Bill 539 across the finish line. For those who have reached out to your Reps I thank you. Today, please reach out again http://actnow.io/IE2ecTH

If you were able to get someone on the line or have had direct communication with one of the 23 REPS listed please send me the results of the call. The truth is, you are in a mode of survival each year fiscally and only are asking to restore what is fair and should follow the child (Indirect Costs, County Wide Federal Support Funds, Reimbursements) .  Call me today for additional talking points but they are tired of hearing from us (Association, Alliance and other advocates).

All of the Reps contact information is attached. If you can do anything, please focus on the Rep(s) closest to you.

These 23 are being specifically targeted as they are on the bubble.

It will take 10 minutes today to reach out. Their phone numbers and counties they represent are attached and linked below.  

If you get through or leave a message with the Legislative Assistant please email me your results (are they for fair funding, against, need more education?) as our lobbyists will be following up with them daily on how not having this funding (on average $471 per child) impacts your charter school.
