Students Rise Up (Project Rise Up) is a plan to organize millions of students to disrupt business as usual and force our schools and our political system to finally work for us. We're demanding free college, a fair wage for workers, and schools where everyone is safe to learn and protest — regardless of their gender or race or immigration status.
We're building up to a mass student strike on May 1st, 2026, when we'll join workers in the streets to disrupt business as usual.
It all starts on November 7th, 2025 with walkouts and protests at hundreds of schools around the country. Join us.
