At IPE/BC we believe that public education is in the public interest. A high quality public school system that is accessible and welcoming to all is essential to a strong democracy and a healthy, equitable, and prosperous society. We expect a great deal from our public schools and, in turn, they need our support. Together we must advocate for the funding, staffing, support and conditions that students, educators, parents, and school communities need.
