TAKE ACTION & LEARN MORE

It’s time to DEMAND CHANGE! Students across New York State are undereducated, miseducated, and trapped in failing school systems. More often than not, Black, Brown and other students of color or poor students suffer through the worst the education system has to offer. Whether students need a safer environment, better academics to meet their needs or other educational services, the education system has failed to deliver what students and families need. This is a crisis! Every child deserves access to a good education and quality schools. Be an equity warrior. Stand up for education equity.  It’s about opportunity and excellence for ALL students!  Join the fight! 

Quality education is about opportunity and excellence.  Quality education allows students to reach their full potential.  Our 9-Point Platform opens doors for all students so they have the opportunity to excel!
