SPRINGFIELD, Ill. - State Rep. Mike Smiddy, D-Hillsdale, will hold a Community Education Forum to discuss a variety of issues regarding public schools on Monday, May 4, at Moline High School located at 3600 Avenue of the Cities in Moline from 6:30 p.m. until 8:30 p.m.
"I take the perspectives of my constituents very seriously when voting at the Capitol, and this event will give me a chance to better understand the local situation regarding education," Smiddy said. "As a father of two, I share all parents' passion for an education system that gives children a great start, and I'm looking forward to working with educators, parents and administrators to continue the fight for the resources our students and schools deserve."
Smiddy, the Regional Office of Education and several local superintendents will provide updates about the education climate in Springfield and the local area. The program will welcome questions from attendees and an open dialogue about how to strengthen Illinois schools.
The event is free and open to the public. For question, please call 309-848-9098 to speak with someone at Smiddy's full time constituent service office
