This event is open to everyone! Join with us on May 1st (May Day) to rise up and stand up for our students!
We believe that ALL students have the right to a quality public education regardless of status or citizenship!

-       Educators will join together with neighbors, friends, and allies to raise awareness, educate, and mobilize.

-       We will Rise Up to ensure that we have welcoming schools that support immigrant students and their families.

-       We will Rise Up to speak out against hate and bias.

-       We will Rise Up to demand the resources for schools and opportunities for all students no matter where they live or what they look like.

We DEMAND that our politicians build schools NOT walls, and we declare our classrooms as Safe Zones for our students to learn without the fear and anxiety of ICE raids!
