Families are organizing for the public schools we deserve
We are 450+ families from 22 MPS schools – from Nellie Stone Johnson and NE Middle School to Folwell and Field. We believe in PUBLIC schools, and we’re committed to Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS) for the long haul. We believe MPS can be the best option for families in our city if district leadership prioritizes what students and educators need to learn and teach.
Our Current campaign
We’re standing with Minneapolis Federation of Educators (MFE) as they negotiate their next contract from bargaining to the picket lines if necessary. We know that the MFE contract is a place to win strong language and enforcement on our priorities.
We want:
- Reasonable class size limits and caseloads;
- Expansion of special education and ELL resources;
- Fair pay and treatment for educators, including better wages and more respect for ESPs; pay parity for Adult Educators; and competitive compensation for licensed educators.
Families are aligned on these issues. A survey of nearly 1000 families conducted by MFPS in spring of 2025 showed that 92 percent of families support or strongly support fair wages for educators. Read the survey results.
