What Can I Do?
Share your stories! What's happening at your school? What is the difference between what DCPS says they're doing to what is really happening on the ground? Email the Councilmembers and the Mayor.
Who's the Decision Maker?
In our government structure, the Mayor ALONE can take action to make all schools safer, make changes to the current rules and STOP the attack on students, teachers and families!
