Save the arts at Baythorn Public School - go to the Board Meeting Thursday, 15, 2011

Save Baythorn Arts

Help save the Arts@Baythorn Public School program.

A huge number of families in York region value an integrated arts approach to education. Arts@Baythorn has been an unmitigated success in delivering this programming for the past 25 years.

Anyone from York Region can apply to the program, though there is not enough room for all those who would like to attend. Instead of expanding on the successful Arts@Baythorn model (which costs the board no more than traditional educational models), the YRDSB would like to quietly shut it down.

Baythorn has given so much to our kids. Now it’s time for us to give back. This is OUR board of education, OUR tax dollars, OUR elected representatives. They will not respond unless they know how we feel. Please make sure they know how important this is to you.

Please, visit http://www.savebaythorn.ca and suppport the students and parents by going to the Board Meeting Thursday, December, 15th 2011.
