In his email he wrote the following: We are respectfully requesting that you consider joining dozens of city and county leaders across the country in officially recognizing January 20-26, 2019 as School Choice Week in McCall. National School Choice Week (NSCW) will feature an unprecedented 40,000+ events nationwide. National School Choice Week is entirely nonpolitical and nonpartisan, and we do not advocate for or against any legislation. Our goal is simply to raise awareness, among parents, of the public and nonpublic K-12 education options available to their children. Last year, more than 720 mayors and county leaders, along with 32 governors, the unanimous United States Senate, and the President issued proclamations recognizing NSCW.  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Proclaim January 20-26, 2019 as McCall School Choice Week and authorize the Mayor to sign the proclamation.  RECORD OF COUNCIL ACTION  MEETING DATE ACTION
