Make an Impact!
Our community should have a say in these decisions affecting our students, the overall health of our education system, and our city. This year is particularly important, as Minneapolis Public Schools welcome new superintendent, Dr. Lisa Sayles-Adams, while facing a $110 million budget deficit.
Use your voice this election season to shape the future as the MPS School Board works alongside Dr. Sayles-Adams to navigate challenging budget decisions, and implement a strong vision for the district.
