Allentown Walkouts Court Case

Allentown School District is failing horribly.  Nearly 40% of students do not graduate.  Electives and programs that interest the students are not available.  And, students are systematically not being heard by the school board and administrators.  Discrimination and assault cases are widespread and are not handled properly according to the PA Department of Education.

In September, students organized the largest protests in Allentown School District history to improve their own education and their futures.  Sadly, their voices were still unheard.

In attempts to send a strong message to students, parents and other community organizations that want Allentown schools to improve, Allentown School District filed 426 corruption of minors charges against me.  I now face heavy fines and prison time for my involvement in the protests and my support of the students.

My court date starts March 11th at 10AM at 501 Hamilton Street.  If you support this cause and want student's voices to be heard, please donate anything you can to help this cause. $5 will go a long way and will be deeply appreciated.  Thank you for considering.  If you would like to speak with me please call [phone redacted] at anytime.

In Solidarity,
Michael Frassetto
Allentown Teacher
