JOIN US IN SALEM FOR VIRTUAL SCHOOLS CAPITOL DAY

Dear Virtual Public School Family,

Are you looking for a fun way to kick off the new year? Teach your children about how the government works and show your support for virtual public education by joining us for Virtual Public Schools Capitol Day 2020 on Tuesday, February 4!

Every winter, virtual public school families travel to the State Capitol in Salem to express their support for virtual public education. Capitol Day is a great opportunity meet other virtual public school families and talk to legislators about this important education option. Students will have the opportunity to participate in educational activities and visit their state legislators in the Capitol Building.

JOIN US IN SALEM ON FEBRUARY 4

Here’s the agenda:

10:00am – Registration at the Mission Mill Museum 1313 Mill St., SE, Salem (2 blocks from State Capitol Building – free on-site parking available)

10:30am – Welcome

10:45am – Talking to Your Legislator

11:00am – Fun and Interactive Education Program

11:45am – Lunch

12:15pm – Walk to the Capitol

12:30pm – Legislator Awards Presentation on the Capitol Steps

1:00pm – Legislator Visits

I encourage you to schedule meetings with your legislators ahead of time. Capitol Day events conclude at 1:00pm, so you can meet them any time after 1:00pm. Find out who represents you in Salem and then call and schedule a meeting. If you have never met a legislator, we will walk you through how it’s done. They love to meet with constituents!

If you can't join us for Capitol Day, email us and we will let you know other ways you can show your support for virtual public education.
