Welcome!

FACS' mission is to celebrate and defend our public schools through advocating for fully funded, just, safe, and inclusive learning communities for all students. We believe that public education is a public good and that our schools are the heart of our community.

We aim to bridge the gap from home to school, school to leadership, and leadership to our key decision makers.

Our goal is to empower families to proudly choose to attend our public schools and to have our public school systems be the schools of choice in our community.

When you invest in our children, you invest in our community!

What We’re Up To

Kindergarten, here we come! πŸ¦πŸŽ‰

🚌 Choosing a school can feel overwhelming, and we’re here to help. Talk with parents who’ve been there, learn how to navigate school choice and enrollment, and why public schools are the best choice for our families.

🍦Join us for a fun afternoon filled with ice cream, kid activities, and real conversations with parents who love ACS and BCS public schools at The Hop on Merrimon on Saturday, January 24th from 2-4 pm! Plus FREE kiddie scoops of ice cream for kids generously donated by The Hop!
