The public schools are something we pretty much take for granted and that is rather strange when you consider what an important invest- ment they are for the children of o,ir community. America's schools are an investment in our future. Orono schools are your investment in the future of this community and for this reason the Orono Education Association wishes to extend a special invitation to you to visit the Orono Schools during American Education Week, November 13-19. 1988. This is your opportunity to see how ,your investment is paying off for today and for the future. As teachers in the Orono School District, we appreciate the support you have shown for educations and we welcome the opportunity to share with you the way in which education has changed and what is happening in our classrooms. We think that it is important that you know how well our schools are keeping up with the challenge of preparing today's students for a world filled with tough decisions. Won't you please plan to visit one or all of the schools in the district sometime during American Education Week, November 13-19? We will be looking forward to your visit.
