Hello parents, Hello students

Have you all heard, what Luna's doin'?

Fewer teachers, crowded classrooms.

But ninth graders get to try new laptops for their learnin'

So we need you, dear legislator,

Stop this now, instead of later.

Once teachers leave us, they won't return.

Students'll lose out when there's no one to help them learn.

Bad for students, bad for the state,

Computer companies, they'll do just great

We can do better, if we just try.

Students should count Mister Luna, that's no lie!
