As concerned parents and caregivers of Peabody students, we urge the City Council to reject the proposed school budget until a full, transparent review of the upper school administration is completed and made public. With significant budget cuts impacting classrooms, staff, and essential student services, it is critical that the community understands exactly how administrative funds are being used. We deserve clarity on the roles, responsibilities, and performance of upper-level administrators to ensure that every dollar is being spent in the best interest of our students. Before any budget is approved, we demand accountability, transparency, and a commitment to prioritizing the needs of our children and educators.
