Take the HEAL Pledge!

We are students; we are educators; we are school board members; we are caregivers.

We are HEAL (Honest Education Action & Leadership) Together. 

We are united in our belief that an honest, accurate, and fully funded public education is fundamental to building a just, multiracial, democracy – a society in which everyone can thrive.

We believe that public education, at its best, prepares students to become citizens. At its best, public education prepares students for democracy by creating a space where students of all backgrounds engage with one another and work towards common goals. At its best, public education creates connected communities that are united in their purpose to provide the next generation with the knowledge and skills to shape a better future.

We commit to:

  • Advocating for an honest, accurate, and fully funded public education in my community and across this country;
     
  • Deepening my own learning about equity and racial justice;
     
  • Fighting back against those who would deploy divisive narratives for their own political gain–whether they are harmful narratives about people of color (Black and Indigenous people in particular), immigrants, LGBTQ people, people who are disabled, and other marginalized people; or false narratives about the work of equity, inclusion, and justice;
     
  • Working to build a just, multiracial, pluralistic democracy so that every person has the freedom to thrive.
