Dear
Community Advocate,
Thank you for agreeing to learn more about our
advocacy efforts. We are excited about your interest
in becoming a strong advocate for our school
district.
Assemblymen and Senators want to make laws that
reflect the knowledge and interests of the people
they represent. To do this effectively, they must
interact and communicate with individuals who are
affected by a particular issue. When this issue is
ensuring the survival of our public schools, that
individual is YOU. As a teacher, parent, or
community member of the education community,
Senators and Assemblymen need your insight about how
changes in state aid will devastate school districts
like ours.
This advocacy toolkit is devoted to helping you
become an effective advocate for sound state
education policy. The toolkit answers questions
about who you should contact, what your message
should be, and how you should deliver your message.
The toolkit will also address common concerns like,
“will they listen to me?” and “will I get in trouble
at work for doing this?” Links to the toolkit can be
found to the left.
Thank you for your interest in assisting Wayland-Cohocton
Central School District with these efforts and for
the impact they will have on our district and our
students.
Sincerely,
Michael Wetherbee
Superintendent of Schools
