The politicians in Tallahassee have made laws and policies that make our schools a battle ground for their march towards power. However, our local school boards do still have some agency and have some significant voices that can speak up for our communities.

We have to GO TO OUR LOCAL SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS!

As millions of students return to school this year, it is URGENT that we mobilize to every school board meeting to hold our district accountable and ensure they know our communities deserve to be seen and supported by our public schools. Together, we can fight back against the harms happening in our schools.

In the midst of these attacks from Tallahassee, it is still the duty of our local school districts to strive for safe, inclusive and supportive schools for all students. That is why we are calling on communities across Florida to demand that our local school boards protect every student and respect every family.

Attend the annual Polk County DEC Holiday Dinner and meet Dems from all across the county.

Cash bar and dinner from the menu.
