Proposed Cuts and a Pending Recount
As you probably already know, the Painesville City Schools levy issue did not pass. After counting provisional ballots, it lost by 29 votes. Last night the board voted at their special work session to pay $600 for a recount of that election. In case the recount does not come out positive for the schools, many possible cuts were proposed for our schools. More information will be posted here soon on what those cuts will or may be. The schools have a $2.5 million shortfall for which they need to compensate to balance the budget.

ADVOCACY ALERT FROM OHIO PTA
The House of Representatives Must Act to Ensure Historic Improvements Are Not Lost
National PTA needs your help to encourage the House of Representatives to vote on S. 3307, the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act, when they return from the November elections. PTA members should reach out to their representatives to urge swift action on this bill in order to enact its many improvements to child nutrition programs into law.
The Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act increases access to vital anti-hunger measures, improves the nutrition quality of foods served in schools, and provides the supports necessary for school food service workers to meet the needs of American children. The $4.5 billion increase in child nutrition funding over the next ten years provided under the bill is a substantial investment at a time when both child hunger and obesity are at alarming levels. The bill includes common-sense measures to help ensure that both of these trends can be reversed, including supports for the direct certification process, updated nutrition standards for all foods served in schools, increased access to local produce and school gardens, and enhanced notification and engagement of parents and the surrounding community in matters that affect the well-being of students.
It is essential that our nation’s students are provided healthy, nutritious options in school in order for them to reach their physical and academic potential. We need your help to influence Congress and make sure this legislation becomes the priority it must be.
Take Action Today! Contact your Representatives today and let them know that the health of our children cannot wait another year.
