Stronger public schools, locally and nationally

We are a growing movement of parents, students, educators, community leaders building Public School Strong in every school district in the United States

Public education is the cornerstone of our democracy, providing every child—regardless of race, identity, or background—with the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.

Right now, we are living through the worst, and most coordinated, attack on students and educators in a generation. Extremists are working to destroy public schools because that’s where kids of different backgrounds learn and grow together across the false divides of race, class and gender. Fully funded public schools that bring our communities together are a threat to people in power that need us to be divided.

Public School Strong exists to meet this moment.

We organize at the school-district level because that is where real change begins. By training everyday people to bring their neighbors together, we are building local power that can stand up to coordinated national attacks.

We are organizing together to protect what we love and ensure all our children get the education they need to thrive.

The Public School Strong campaign is powered by community leaders, non-profit organizations, and education unions fighting for students and public schools across issues from housing to immigration justice.
