Letter: Education is about more than academics

In recent weeks, our community has experienced events that created fear and uncertainty for many families. In times like these, we believe public education matters more than ever. Education is about far more than academics; it is the foundation of our community's strength and resilience.

Our schools are vital hubs where students learn critical social and emotional skills. They are places where young people develop empathy, practice respectful dialogue, and build the character needed to navigate complex challenges. The classroom provides a consistent environment for fostering understanding and compassion among peers from diverse backgrounds.

When uncertainty arises, schools offer stability and support. Educators and staff work tirelessly to ensure every child feels safe, valued, and heard. This holistic approach prepares students not only for tests and future careers but for life as engaged, caring citizens. The true measure of education is found in the strength of the community it helps to build, teaching our children how to support one another through difficult times and emerge stronger together.
