- With more top-rated, award-winning schools and programs that prepare students well for college and jobs, Akron Public Schools is moving in the right direction. Check out videos and more information on the Issue 14 official website:
http://forakronschools.com/content/videos.html - Akron Public Schools faces a dire financial situation; $7 million, 83 teachers and many programs have been cut. Revenue from state and
local sources will decline by another $18 million. - With salary scale freezes and benefit cuts, teachers, staff and administrators are doing their part.
- Without Issue 14 -- which costs $7 per month for the average homeowner -- APS faces an $11 million deficit that could easily end key programs, eliminate teachers, and stop APS progress in graduating students who are ready for college and the work force.
APS is moving in the right direction. Continued improvements are vital to the success of our community's neighborhoods, work force and economy.
