As you probably already know, I am a member of the "Foreigners in Jyv�skyl�" Facebook Group, where we are able to exchange information about local events (i.e. sales, shops being closed, events and so on) and have monthly meet-ups.
So one SUPER hot topic that is going on in Jyv�skyl� right now is the possibility of shutting down ALL English-speaking programs and classes in Jyv�skyl�.
Why is this bad?

- Some families don't stay in Finland for very long - so continuing their education in English would be SUPER important for them (and make life a heck of a lot easier).
- The oppourtunities for foreign families to move here would drop significantly and that means less money for local businesses and less enrolled students.
Kirsti Earl started a petition that can be found here and there are only 9 more (digital) signatures required!!!
So PLEASE sign if you live in Finland or know someone who lives here that benefits from having English-speaking programs!!!
