Schools

March 18th is NYS PTA's Virtual Lobby Day!

North Bellmore Coordinating Council of PTAs urges you to have your voice heard!  
Please contact your State Senators & Assemblymen and ask them to fight to increase state aid to public education. If funding is decreased the landscape of our public schools will be profoundly changed and once changed, it will be very hard, if not impossible to get back. We are talking about the loss of support staff, sports, clubs, programs, advanced courses; teachers and administrators, there simply will not be a choice. Please support the preservation of public education. We on Long island demand our fair share of education funding.  

To use NYS PTAs pre-formatted e-mail messages go to:
