We speak truth to power

We know parents are powerful change agents.

We make sure to build the capacity of every parent to ensure our voices are heard in an organized and powerful way, our priorities with our school district align, and that we are partnering in meaningful and intentional ways. 

We had questions

Our movement started with parents asking our district school leaders to support all learning environments, give families the choice for high quality learning options, and to intentionally partner with families in Charles County Public Schools. We are not an agenda-driven movement. What drives us  are parent priorities.

Our children deserve a high quality education

Our community is tired of our education system not delivering on the promise of providing a great education for our children, parent voices being ignored, and our children being denied access to a safe, high quality public education. We bring together our community to attend school board meetings, protests, and ensure our voices are heard in an organized and powerful way.

Our Core

CHARLES COUNTY CORE BELIEFS 

  • We believe that parents are powerful change agents that should lead their own liberation and in order to do that we must build their capacity.
  • We believe in elevating the stories and voices of parents and students.
  • We believe our children are brilliant, full of potential, and should be at the center of our advocacy efforts.
  • We believe education systems must be transformed to dismantle oppressive district and school cultures to achieve equity and racial justice.
  • We believe in creating a more equitable and joyous future for all children.
  • We believe all learning environments need to be free of racism, intolerance, meanness, and prejudice. 
  • We believe that students, educators, and families should feel loved, welcomed, affirmed, and supported in our schools.
  • We believe in restorative practices and trauma responsive de-escalation to mold the behavior of children while ensuring the physical and emotional safety of everyone in our schools.  


This list is not an exhaustive list of our core beliefs but it's a start towards building a kinder, more equitable tomorrow.
