Vice President Joe Biden will visit Oakstead Elementary School in Land O’Lakes, Pasco County tomorrow, Tuesday, October 4.
The Vice President will deliver remarks urging Congress to pass the American Jobs Act now to keep teachers in the classroom, rebuild schools in Florida and across the nation, and put more money in the pockets of working Americans, while not adding a dime to the deficit.
Pasco County Public Schools eliminated 513 positions for the 2011-2012 school year, including 8 out of 83 teachers at Oakstead Elementary School.
The Vice President will focus on the impact of teacher layoffs on the quality of education for middle class families, highlighting how budget cuts are impacting our children’s education and prospects for competing in the future.
Meanwhile, the White House said last week that President Barack Obama will head to Orlando next Tuesday, October 11. A statement from the White House said that further details of the president’s visit will be released at a later time.
