Our Voice Matters - And Our Work Continues

/

A huge thank you to everyone who showed up to support Moorlands on Monday evening. Your presence made a powerful statement: when our community stands together, our voice is impossible to ignore.

But our fight is not over. The School Board is expected to vote on the proposed scenarios in March, which means we have an important window to continue making our case. We need to ensure School Board members - and the broader community - understand why Moorlands matters and why closing our school is not the only option.

Now is the time to keep the momentum going. Every conversation, email, phone call, sign, event, and connection can make a difference. Together, we can show the School Board that Moorlands is a community worth fighting for.

Here's how you can help:

Show up at an upcoming School Board meeting - every voice and every presence matters!

  • Attend: Demonstrate how much Moorlands means to our community.

  • Speak: Share your concerns during the 3-minute public comment period. Arrive early to sign up! Speaking spots are limited, and public comment is capped at one hour, so not everyone may get a chance to speak.

  • Show your support: Wear Moorlands gear, bring signs, and support those speaking. Simply being there makes a difference!

  • Bring the kids! Students are welcome and actually get to speak first during public comment. Kids can also read or do other quiet activities during the meeting.
