PPG and CSL: Village School Open House February 2, 2006

Grassroots democracy, critical thinking, the right of all people to freedom, nonviolent conflict resolution, working for positive change in the world - all these ideals are held by the People of Peace and Goodwill and are at the heart of our practices at the Village School.  At the school we strive to bring these ideals alive in the young people who enter our care.  For those of us who wish to bring about world change, changing the way we educate children seems to be fundamental.
 
We are calling upon the community for some help in this endeavor.  The Village School mission is misunderstood in this community and our enrollment has dropped.  There is not a critical mass of enrolled families who connect with the basic principles of the school.  It would be a shame if Northfield lost one of the 2 free democratic public schools in the country.
 
What support can we get from you in the areas of public relations, marketing suggestions, recruitment?  On February 2, we will be meeting at the Village School to learn more about the school and to brainstorm ways to increase its viability in the community.  Please join us.
