Advancing public education in Nebraska
Stand For Schools' Successes Our story Nebraska is one of three states with no school privatization policies: no charters, no vouchers, no tax credits. Founded in 2016, Stand For Schools has successfully staved off those policies for the past two years. Nearly passed a student mental health bill this year.
Context Our state has great public schools that work. 2nd-highest high school graduation rate in the country 7th-highest college-going rate in the country Yet schools face new, long-standing, and growing challenges. Omaha is one of the most highly segregated cities in the country. Many NE school districts have seen the number of students who qualify for free and reduced lunch double in the past 15 years. We support research-based policies that help public schools better serve all students.
Threats In-state and out-of-state players Bills introduced in past 2 years: ALEC playbook: Charter schools, vouchers, grading schools A-F Advanced from Committee; defeated by Legislature in 2018 Tax credits Significantly modified Mandatory 3rdgrade reading retention
Our Strategy (inside baseball) Know the rules. 501(c)3 organizations can spend up to 20% of their resources, including staff time, on lobbying. Does not include volunteer time. Partner with existing education policy organizations and school districts. Build relationships with policymakers (Education Committee) and learn how to count votes. Ten-12 calls to a state senator from their constituents can change their vote if they are on the fence, in our experience.
Our Strategy (external) Build partnerships with existing community organizations. Listen to local leaders; faith leaders have been especially critical in Nebraska. Public schools are not a partisan issue in NE; 85% of Nebraskans support them. Don t overly politicize the discussion. Write letters to the editor. Engage on social media. Know your audience and lean on culture.
