Great Alaska Schools’ goal is to let busy parents and other community members know how they can advocate for Alaska’s schools.
Action Items
What moves legislators most is hearing from students and families.
In Alaska, nearly all K-12 funding comes from the state. The amount of funding school districts get is determined by our state legislators and governor. Local school boards cannot generate revenue and are required to balance the budget each year.
Please consider writing to your state legislators. The list of senators and representatives and their contact information can be found here.
Enough is Enough!
Sign the Great Alaska Schools Petition letting Governor Dunleavy know that his proposed 2025-26 budget’s 15% cut to education is unacceptable!
Contact the Office of the Governor.
Governor Mike Dunleavy has repeatedly vetoed significant funds our schools need, depriving our schools of much-needed operating dollars. These funds were approved by large bipartisan majorities in the Legislature.
Tell Governor Dunleavy you support increased funding for public education. You can contact him here.
