Attend the Put Kids First Rally on April 18!

The VEA and Virginia PTA are demanding that Virginia's elected leaders Put Kids First. We invite all teachers, school employees, parents, community members, or any supporter of public education to rally for our cause.

Bus transportation available for those more than one hour from Richmond. Call 1-800-552-9554 for details. After you RSVP, you will hear from VEA organizing staff to confirm your attendance, see if you'll be bringing anyone with you, and whether you need seats on a bus from your area.

Here's what's going on leading up to the 3 pm Rally:

12 noon Pre-Event staging and bus drop-off at the Richmond Convention Center (North 3rd & East Marshall)
Come if you can! We'll have music, speakers, activities for kids, and a limited number of T-shirts.

2 pm March to Capitol
All are welcome to walk a parade route from the Convention Center to the Capitol; it's about five blocks.

3 pm Rally at Capitol Bell Tower, Franklin and 9^th Streets
We'll hear from passionate Virginians dedicated to children and public education. Rally will end by 4 pm and buses will load passengers afterward at the Convention Center.
