Here is the link to last nights school committee meeting. Folks, now is the time to get involved and really start paying attention to what is happening in our schools. I missed the first 30 minutes of the meeting last night, but did have a chance to watch this morning.

I am proud that Abington Public Schools are, and will remain safe spaces for all students, (but especially for those who are the most marginalized and vulnerable), to learn and hopefully thrive. I am extremely grateful for programs such as GSA and GEM that give LGBTQ+ students an outlet to talk to others and feel empowered to live their best authentic lives.

Town elections are coming up on April 30th. I encourage you to get out and vote! Please consider voting to keep Danielle Grafton on the school committee. Danielle is a teacher and a parent, and always provides thoughtful and insightful input at each and every meeting. Danielle has been a calming presence during a time when meetings are not always calm! She is an absolute asset to the committee. Thank you!
