28 students in the Lafayette Elementary 5th grade class (room 12) have had substitute teachers for almost a month. The level of education has dropped substantially.  

During this critical time, our children need proper guidance and support both academically and emotionally in order to transition and be successful in middle school.  Mr. Ferris' extended absence has created stress and anxiety for the class.  

Please sign the petition to urge school officials to respond so our class can return to normalcy.
