Invest in education

Governor Dunleavy

In December 2024, Governor Dunleavy proposed an education budget for the 2025-26 school year that would represent a 15% CUT from this year's budget.

If the legislature passes the Gov's budget as currently proposed, schools would receive almost $2,000 LESS in real dollars per student than they did in 2011.

Schools are closing, teachers are leaving the profession, and families are leaving the state because we have failed to invest in our kids and in our future.

Alaska needs strong public schools for a vibrant future. Yet your proposed budget would mean more cuts for schools. This is unacceptable. Schools are closing, teachers are leaving the profession, and families are leaving the state because we have failed to invest in our kids and in our future.

Governor, we call on you and the legislature to invest in Alaska's future by adjusting the education budget to keep up with inflation. We can't afford not to.
