NewMexicoKidsCAN
Action Fund

Advocating for the education New Mexico’s students deserve.

NewMexicoKidsCAN Action Fund is a 501c(4) organization that works to support the bold education policies New Mexico urgently needs. Our goal is to create an education system in New Mexico that is world-class and excellent for all students so that they are ready to be the Land of Enchantment’s future leaders.

 

NewMexicoKidsCAN Action Fund supports bold education policies and elected officials that make a real difference for New Mexico kids. We are steadfast in our belief that our students deserve better, and we are relentless in our belief that progress is possible.

Excellence

We cannot set our sights on only minor improvements to the edges of our education system, but rather on excellence for all. An excellent public school system will foster a vibrant economy, healthy communities and an engaged democracy. That means keeping our standards high and aligning our efforts around nation-leading results.

Options

No two New Mexico children are the same. Our schools and pathways should complement our students’ distinct identities by offering a multitude of options for rigorous, forward-thinking and diverse school models. By creating more options—each with a different model and unique emphasis—we can provide every child a foundation for future success while making their classroom experience personally enriching and relevant.

Transparency

We live in a data-rich world, but this data rarely finds its way to the people who need it most. From our Capitol to our classrooms, data only makes a difference if it’s accessible, relevant and user-friendly. This is especially true when it comes to student learning and how well our schools are using their resources to create great educational experiences for every kid.

Innovation

The world is changing in bold and dramatic ways: our students’ future jobs don’t even exist yet. We must ensure that our education system keeps pace by reimagining school and creating learning environments that prepare our students to reach their potential in the 21st century.

School Board elections November 4

After thorough review of the candidates’ APS candidate surveys, we chose to endorse the following candidates. We believe that the following Education Champions will bring necessary change to Albuquerque Public Schools to ensure that every child has access to an education that prepares them to be the future leaders our city and state need. They have demonstrated through their responses that they are committed to improving student outcomes in New Mexico’s largest school district.
