I sent this email today to the folks who attended our recent Beantown Democrats for Education Reform Happy Hour:
OK, so I waited until after your beloved Bo Sox brought home the trophy before I sent out this thank you for joining us at our recent Boston area DFER Happy Hour. Your dedication to education reform/politics (on a rainy night when the Red Sox were playing and there was no parking near the bar) was inspiring!
I wanted to alert you in advance that Democrats for Education Reform will be one of the co-sponsors (along with the Massachusetts Charter Schools Association and the National Alliance for Public Charter Schools for a Boston panel discussion on Democrats and Charter Schools on Dec. 11. I’ll get you the details as soon as I have them, but mark your celandars. (It will likely be in the morning.)
In the mean time, please make sure you sign our on-line petition so that we can show Democratic Party leaders that there are good Dems who care about quality schooling! You can sign the petition at http://www.dfer.org/petition/. Neighbors, spouses, colleagues, parents, lovers, etc. are encouraged to sign on as well!
Thanks!
Joe Williams
