Legislative conference committee hearings are in full swing–and conferees need to hear from folks right away NOT to impose a cap on the MinneMinds preschool scholarships. These caps would undermine the pre-K model MinneMinds is built on–which emphasizes flexibility for families–and its potential impact. We have only hours to act.
About Us
Great schools change everything.
Every child deserves a great school, no matter their background. Together with Minnesotans across the state, MinnCAN advocates for the research-backed policies that will make sure they get one.
Careers in the STEM fields continue to be some of the highest-paying and fastest growing in the nation. Encouraging our kids, especially girls and students of color, to excel in math and science is the first step in ensuring America's innovation and competitiveness in an increasingly high-tech economy.
I care about public schools in Minnesota because I believe a good education is key for the personal success of our children and the economic vitality of our state.
We all contribute to a child's education, directly and indirectly. Directly, we must support responsible public policy. Indirectly, we must promote a responsible educational culture. In both cases, we need all hands on deck.
