Description
This petition from The County-Wide League responds to the March 6, 1945, public forum on educational equity and supports recommendations by Janie Redwood. The petition calls for reduced teacher loads through school consolidation, improved transportation, adequate supplies, and enriched curricula for Negro children in Loudoun County. It urges implementing some urgently needed measures by September 1945 to address safety and health concerns. The document also expresses appreciation for public discussion on educational opportunities under the segregated (Jim Crow) system and supports a proposed tax rate increase by the Board of Supervisors.
