• We believe public education is a bedrock principle of our free and democratic society.

• We believe all students have the right to a quality education, from early childhood through post-

secondary college or career training.

• We believe in an adequately funded public education for all students. We reject all efforts to

divert public funding to privatized education.​

• We believe all students should be able to attend college or career training without the burden of

excessive debt. Lowering in-state tuition costs by responsibly funding our public community

colleges and universities is critical to this mission.

• We recognize the opportunity gap between and within our communities. We support policies to

equalize education funding and eliminate the gap for children across income levels and zip

codes.

• We believe children and teachers have the right to be safe in school. We support enforced anti-

bullying policies and laws.

• We support gun-free schools. We will fight any attempts to arm teachers or militarize schools

under the pretense of school safety.

• We believe that public schools are at the frontline of New Hampshire’s mental health, substance

misuse, and child protection crises, and that behavioral health support for students and

teachers is crucial.
