Join us in Lansing on March 19th from 9a-2p with breakfast and lunch provided.
We will meet at 9 am on Thursday the 19th to go over the schedule for the day. Everyone will rejoin their teams for deeper training about building hyperlocal power
and influencing legislators. We will talk about MEJC's goals for healthy and healing schools, and then teams will work together to create a plan of action for
2026-2027 and beyond.
RED for ED: Two weeks of people-powered action to Fund MI Schools!
Invest In MI Kids, a hopeful ballot initiative that would tax the top 1% in Michigan to help fund our public schools, needs nearly 500K signatures to get on the
November 2026 ballot so, from February 14-28, we are asking volunteers to help collect signatures to get us there and we need YOU!
It’s all hands on deck so we can better fund teacher’s salaries, improve career/technical education and lower classroom sizes. This tax would raise over
$1 BILLION for public education.
Join the fight for equitable funding for Michigan's public schools!
Beyond full and fair funding, students, teachers, family members and other caregivers need to have a voice in how funding is used to transform our schools.
In the past year, we've held listening sessions and conducted surveys to find out what communities really think about what schools need to help students succeed. We're just getting started. We have to be ready to push back against those who are seeking to undermine Michigan's public schools for their own agenda and
profits. Tell Michigan legislators to raise dough for our schools!
MEJC State of Education Town Hall 2026
Join MEJC for our State of Education Town Hall on Wednesday, February 4th at 7:00 PM EST, a virtual space to break down what’s really happening in Michigan education right now. We’ll share updates on the Michigan legislature’s budget fight, unpack the national attacks on public education, and talk honestly about how these decisions impact students and communities. Most importantly, we’ll make space to reflect, ask questions, and learn how to get involved in protecting and reimagining education in Michigan.
