About this Petition Petition Letter Petition Updates

Well I recently found out that this is one thing Lavonne Sheffield isn't responsible for. The state of Illinois is wanting to take the Early Childhood grant money and use it for something else. We owe to to our children to fight for this. The early childhood program is wonderful and it teaches our children alot, not to mention getting them ready for kindergarten.

 

What could be more important than our children's education that they are willing to take this money away from them? We need to collect as many signatures as we can and turn it in before it's too late. Please think of the children and help me.

Please keep early childhood program open

Greetings,

I am a concerned parent of a child attending an early childhood program. I ask that you reconsider your decision to close the program. It is a very important part of the education process. How are our kids supposed to be ready for kindergarten without it? The early education program is a very productive program.The program here in Rockford,IL ,what I am trying to keep open, is the best in the state.

I would just like for you to please reconsider taking the grant money from this program because myself and other parents will not stop fighting for our children.

[Your name]
