SUMMARY:School Vouchers: What’s the Effect on Public and Private Education?
DESCRIPTION:Speaker(s): Dan Heintz\, Cleveland Hts.-University Hts. School Board Member\, Chardon Teacher\, and Steering Committee Member of the Vouchers Hurt Ohio coalition; other speaker TBD \n\n\n\nSince the late 1990’s Ohio’s voucher system has increased access to state-funded school scholarships.  Previously\, eligibility was  primarily based  on a family’s income or a school’s academic performance.  Since 2023’s dramatic voucher expansion\, most K-12 students are eligible for scholarship assistance to both private and parochial schools. Do these school  choice programs create a competitive educational marketplace?  Or are the school vouchers unconstitutional\, given the use of public tax funds for private and religious education? Currently l/3 of Ohio’s public schools are financed by the school voucher program.

SUMMARY:UUs Together January: Countering an unstoppable narrative
DESCRIPTION:Join UUs Together January meeting: How do we counter a narrative that seems unstoppable? \n\n\n\nWith the incoming administration promoting policies and actions that strongly conflict with our values and will harm many people\, it is seductive to feel paralyzed. Yet we know we have personal and group agency\, and can be mobilized to put out narratives that reflect our values and care. Please join us virtually Monday evening January 27th from 7-8:30pm. We will share ideas for promoting our narratives\, supporting each other in the process. Please send an email to Laurie at sunnyskies2023@yahoo.com for the zoom link.
