Education is the best public investment we can make. Investing in early childhood programs means our children are prepared to get the most out of their elementary education. Investing in elementary and secondary education has been proven to reduce costs in social services, corrections, and the justice system. Investing in higher education is one of the best kinds of economic development because it builds a stronger workforce and a more dynamic economy.

Smaller class sizes, fair compensation for teachers, and programs like special education and gifted and talented programs are not luxuries, they ensure that all Minnesota children get what they need and deserve. It's our responsibility to find sustainable ways to fund education and authentic ways to measure our success.
