Public Education Advocacy Organization supporting students, educators and everyone who help make quality public education accessible to all! #ksleg #ksed
Thank you to all those who ran, supported candidates, voted and encouraged others to vote! It was a great election for traditional candidates and for students and staff in districts across the state. If elections in your district didn’t go well, there’s another election in 2 years.

Four years ago, we did endorsements in school board races for the first time after seeing candidates across the state whose priorities were out of step with the needs of our public schools and the children they serve.

#Vouchers were removed from the federal budget bill, but now they're back in it. Contact Kansas Senator Moran at 202-224-6521 to urge removal of vouchers from the bill. #ksleg #ksed

The budget bill passed the House after an overnight session. The mainstream media isn’t talking much about the voucher provision so make sure our Senators know your opposition to it. Call both our Senators today!

Josh Cowen explains to members of the Texas legislature why #vouchers are bad for students. Gov. Abbott & dark money donors ousted key Republicans who had voted against vouchers. We need to make sure Kansans understand the threat to our public schools & students they serve

School vouchers promise better education—This report raises doubts
The report says students from lower-income households face numerous barriers when it comes to voucher programs that direct public money toward private schools.

Gov. Laura Kelly sent a letter to U.S. education secretary Linda McMahon asking for the reinstatement of $22.6 million in COVID-era federal funding that Kansas was going to use to address pandemic learning loss.

Congratulations to KCMO public school students on the passage of a landmark school bond measure tonight 84.9% to 15.1%…absolutely amazing. First KCMO school bond since 1967 to pass. In fact, roads, public safety, public schools & firefighting were all winners tonight in the KC metro area

Once again Texas legislator James Talarico nails how #vouchers are a scam, welfare for the wealthy, and a massive transfer of wealth from the bottom to the top (and in Kansas from rural areas to Johnson and Sedgwick Counties). #ksleg #ksed

In Red States, Rural Voters Are Leading the Resistance to School Vouchers
The billionaire-led push to siphon public funds to private religious schools faces a backlash from rural voters who make up the GOP base.

We don't normally post about federal education policy as we always have a lot going on in Kansas, but the dismantling of the Deprtment of Education is a disaster, especially for poor and rural Kansans. #ksleg #ksed

Contact your Representative in the House NOW and urge them to vote NO on SCR 1611, which would abandon the current merit selection process for Supreme Court Justices and subject them to elections. #ksleg #ksed
March 18, 2025 at 3:18 AM
Contact your #ksleg Senator NOW to
🔹Reject or Amend HB 2007 - current budget bill w/
❌ NO new funding for #SPED (which violates Maintenance of Effort requirement)
❌ zeroes out CURRENT YEAR funding for CTE, the teacher mentorship program, teacher professional development & Safe & Secure Schools.
March 18, 2025 at 12:47 AM
Wear green and join fellow public education supporters! The legislature is continuing to underfund #SPED, eliminating some current funding and trying to change how Supreme Court Justices are selected. It’s important for them to know Kansans are watching! #ksleg #ksed

The Senate has passed the dangerous anti-public education constitutional amendment to abolish the current merit system for selecting our Supreme Court Justices and switch to electing them. 🤬 #ksleg #ksed #kscourts
March 7, 2025 at 12:03 AM
Contact your Senator and urge them to vote NO on SCR 1611 which would amend the Kansas constitution to change the selection of Supreme Court justices from the current merit selection process to elections. We believe this may go to the Senate floor on Wednesday. #ksleg #ksed

Legislators would have you forget they want to use public money to continue to subsidize the costs of education for a small subset of rich children.
