Letters to Lawmakers

Hand-written letters are a great way to connect with your local lawmakers, and we plan to gather as many letters from charter students, parents and educators as possible - then deliver them to as many lawmakers as possible.

Share Your Story with MAPSA

Lawmakers respond best to stories from their own constituents. Sharing your school’s story is far more powerful when it comes directly from the people they represent. This budget season, raise your voice for learner choice.
