This is a collection of adults and children's messages that challenge public school to become something more than it is - messages that dare public school to serve students' passions instead of politicians and vendors' coffers.
So many of the divisions and false notions of social order we cling to as adults are entrenched in the culture of public education. We want to take our next step in challenging that culture, and we ask for your help in helping us capture and share counter-narratives to today's test-addled, pop notions of schooling.

As a future educator…
I am determined to provide a quality education for ALL students regardless of zip code, SES, language, race, AND legal status.
I see students’ abilities before their disabilities.
I refuse to fill students’ minds with the ideals of a corrupt Capitalistic society.
I OCCUPY EDUCATION
