This election cycle is far too important to sit out. Your vote is needed to prevent radical legislation that slashes education funding, takes away resources from students who need it most, and makes it harder to recruit and retain qualified educators. It’s time to vote your future.

“
We need candidates who will stand up for our teachers, support staff, and students and make sure New Hampshire’s public schools continue to be the bedrock of our communities. Teaching during a pandemic has been an enormous undertaking. Through it all our teachers faced radical politicians in Concord who passed laws to silence and intimidate them from teaching honest history. Now, we see an unprecedented number of openings for teacher and support staff positions, many a direct consequence of the actions taken by the legislature these past two years.
