We work to ensure that all public-school children have equal access to a high-quality education regardless of where they live in Minnesota.
Our success does not depend on geography. Success depends on school districts with similar characteristics and their communities joining together to shape Minnesota politicians’ education finance and policy decisions. We prioritize:
- Legislation that ensures an equitable distribution of school resources.
- Equal access to school levy revenue for low-property wealth school districts.
- Accountability for elected officials to provide adequate and equitable funding so all students meet academic standards and reach their highest potential.
