Nevada students deserve a safe and successful return to the classroom after the devastating effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. Nevada has received federal funding to open schools safely and restore learning losses, but these funds must be used for those purposes and not to simply fill budget holes left behind by insufficient state funding. Federal dollars will not solve Nevada's chronic underfunding of schools and will expire in a few short years. Without a permanent plan in place Nevada will continue as one of the lowest funded K-12 systems in the country and our students will continue to fall behind academically. Empower Nevada's Future calls for a long term stable funding plan to support our students.  Learn More

    PLEDGE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE


    Ensuring ALL Nevada students have the resources and opportunities to succeed in a rapidly changing and global economy. 

    Our students deserve our commitment: 

    ​1) I pledge to support efforts to move Nevada at a minimum up to the national average in per pupil funding by 2030 with needed legislation in place by 2024. (Currently Nevada ranks 45th in per-pupil funding.)

    2) I pledge to support efforts to identify revenue resources beginning the 2021 session that will result in a plan to fairly and adequately fund all our public schools. ​

    3) I pledge my support to make Nevada's K-12 education system and children's well-being the top funding priority in our state, where every child is provided with the adequate resources, he or she needs to be supported, healthy and college or career ready. 

    4) I pledge to stay informed about the work of political candidates and elected officials who support increased revenue for K-12 public schools  and support this pledge. 

    5) I pledge to encourage my family, friends, business, agency or organization(s) to sign this pledge of support for education and to proactively support the campaign in the years ahead. 

    I value our students and their right to a quality education, and I pledge to be a part of this change!
