Communities That Work For Us: Education
Step Up New London, is organizing parents, caregivers, and community allies to achieve an anti-racist, equitable, and just education system that nurtures a sense of belonging and ability to thrive. We understand that parents roles in youth-led movements are essential and supporting and amplifying student/youth voices is critical. We have an ongoing collaborative partnership with Hearing Youth Voices (HYV), a youth-led organization fighting for education justice. Together we are working to improve our school system and community.
Are you a parent/guardian, student, alum, school employee, or community partner? Currently, we are leading a community-based study to learn more about the experiences you've had with New London Public Schools. This will support our ability to create needed improvements (i.e. policy/regulation changes, funding, etc). We want to hear from you! To learn more and take our survey, please fill out this form and we will reach out in 3-5 days.
