MPORTANT UPDATE: Due to the (extremely) high chance of rain, we are moving tomorrow’s Invest in Success Rally for Public Education to the Capitol Rotunda.
The program will still begin at 1 p.m. The rally will conclude with the delivery of nearly 1,000 handwritten notes from educators and other supporters of public schools to the governor’s office.
We will still have sign-making, note-writing and social media activities at Education Minnesota’s office, 41 Sherburne Ave. in St. Paul, from 11:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. Food trucks and bathroom facilities also will be available outside the Education Minnesota building.
Come rally for the schools our kids deserve with parents, students, community members and hundreds of educators just like you.
Spread the word! We hope to see you tomorrow!
