Working to improve access, advance opportunities, and ensure racial justice in public education for all students
California is the 5th largest economy in the world. Yet our state is 46th in the nation in per pupil spending, at approximately $11,000 per student annually. There are huge disparities in educational opportunities based upon systemic racism.
Our coalition works with families, students, educators, educational justice groups, civil rights organizations, elected officials, and grassroots communities to ensure that all students have access to the resources they need to succeed and to amplify the voices of families, students and educators.
“What makes a great school is teachers who are there to support you, and students who want experiences outside of learning. My school is great because the teachers are supportive, helpful, and there for you any time. We create a bond with our teachers.”
“As a parent, your child’s well-being is everything. Not only is my son safe at his school, he’s also happy. He has had great teachers, especially his Special Education teachers. I keep in touch with them and ask questions to support his IEP (Individual Education Plan).”
“My favorite thing about teaching is that every day is different. It’s fun to wake up every day for something new, and it’s a great thing to work with kids.”
