Public Education Candidates Prevail in Many Close Races Throughout The Commonwealth
While there are still some races too close to call, the voters have made their voices heard throughout the Commonwealth.
“While some politicians may seek to drive a wedge between them, parents and educators are united in wanting to see every student succeed,” said Dr. James J. Fedderman, president of the Virginia Education Association. “In every community across the Commonwealth, parents and educators are working together to build stronger public schools and create opportunities for students, and VEA will continue to support that critical work.”
We congratulate the proven public school supporters and friends of education who won contests yesterday, especially these individuals also recommended by the NEA Fund for Children and Public Education:
Virginians have always made education a top election issue and understand that investing in our public schools and those who work for them helps increase educational achievement and economic prosperity. VEA members, the professionals who work with our children every day, know the importance of working to get pro-public education candidates elected.
According to a American Library Association survey, 67% of voters oppose banning books from school libraries?
