Framingham Save Our Schools

We, the undersigned Framingham residents, are very concerned for the future of the Framingham Public Schools.   Failing to provide level service budgets for the last four years has caused successive rounds of program and staffing cuts that have resulted in a significant decline in the breadth and the quality of the education being provided to the children of Framingham.

When this occurs, our community becomes less desirable for prospective homebuyers resulting in diminished property values, hurting all homeowners. More importantly, the children graduating from the Framingham schools will find it more difficult to compete successfully as they pursue higher education and employment.

As such we respectfully request that the Framingham Board of Selectmen, working with the CFO and Town Manager make it a priority to craft a budget in FY12 and subsequent fiscal years that includes sufficient funds to provide the Framingham School Department with level service budgets.
