Governor's+Contracting+of+Services

Through the hard work of individuals, organizations, parents, teachers, etc,. a letter was sent to Governor Ed Rendell rebuking his contracting of services in the amount of $201M with the Data Recognition Corporation, which is in violation of the School Code legislation enacted for the 2008-2009 school year.

Additionally, I suggest you take a few minutes to email or call the Senator's below thanking them for this letter on behalf of our children.
