L’Etoile du Nord French Immersion School

My good friend and fellow creative designer... along with his wife have devoted themselves to their two young children and have made countless sacrifices for their education and care. For example, Steve, stayed home and cared for his young girls and forfeited his salary and seniority at his workplace. He and his wife changed neighborhoods/home for his girls and as parents they spent countless hours choosing the right school for their girls.... and their choice was L’Etoile du Nord French Immersion School (which is in their neighborhood). The school is the crown-jewel for the St. Paul school districts (highly rated, excellent parent involvement...) yet St. Paul wants to move it.

Read more here and please sign the petition to keep the school where it is. Help keep the school where Steve's girls.. and their friends live and where it is dearly wanted.
