Support East Ramapo Public Schools Before it’s Too Late
Act Now
State Assemblymember Ken Zebrowski has introduced strong legislation that would allow New York state to take financial control of the Hudson Valley’s East Ramapo Central School District.
Year after year, members of the white majority in East Ramapo – who send their students to private schools – vote down school budgets that include funding increases for public schools, where 96 percent of the students are people of color. Now the district is in a financial crisis of its own making and the public school students in East Ramapo are suffering as a result. This is 21st-Century Jim Crow—segregated schools that deny the right to education to children of color—right here in New York.
Tell your state senator to introduce and support legislation that will finally help end Jim Crow education in East Ramapo.
