The
Iowa City Community School District is facing serious cuts in staffing
and potential teacher layoffs. Join us in voicing our concern to the
school board and state legislators. We cannot allow our community's
children to shoulder the burden of the state's financial problems.
Protecting teachers means protecting our future!
Spread the word!
