Share the video that tells why fair funding is crucial
September 18, 2009 by Dave Rathke
IEA has produced a 4 1/2 minute video that explains what the fight for fair funding is all about! Check it out here:
The video features IEA President Ken Swanson welcoming IEA members back to school, talking to them about IEA’s mission and giving members and introduction to the fight for fair funding. A few brief questions are included for a short discussion. It makes for an idea “10 minute meeting!”
We encourage you to show the video in your building today! Here’s how to access it:
- Check it out here, on the website, and encourage others to do the same.
- A DVD of the video was sent to each local president. Contact yours and ask to either borrow it, or make a copy of it.
- Or, feel free to contact Kathy Vigardt with the Invest in Excellence campaign and she’ll be happy to assist you in getting your own copy.
Thanks so much for helping to spread the word that fair education funding in Illinois is essential!
This video is excellent. I will be sharing this information with my master’s class on October 8th. We need to make sure that everyone is aware of how bad our state is doing! It truly is embarrassing!
