OCDP’s Education Subcommittee Meeting
Friday, June 24th (6:00pm – 7:00pm)
We need Democratic candidates to run for the Huron Valley School District Board of Education and fend off pro-Trump extremists.

It’s time to get back to educating our children and ensuring that we have the right candidates who tell the truth and listen to our communities.
