Governor at public meeting in Lowell tonight
Governor Deval Patrick will hold a public meeting at the Stoklosa Middle School, 560 Broadway, at 6:30 tonight to discuss his vision for the future of our public schools. The governor will specifically address the goals of his Readiness Project with a focus on expanded time for teaching and learning. This is an opportunity to learn about the Governor’s education priorities, which will impact the district’s programs going forward. Tonight’s discussion on expanding the school day is especially timely here in Lowell because we currently have a state planning grant specifically on that issue. Please join us at tonight’s meeting as a show of support for how important good public schools are to the city, and as a way to learn firsthand the Governor’s vision for the future education of our children.
