STANDING UP FOR THE FUTURE

OUR PURPOSE

Students First VA is a grassroots organization created by concerned parents and community members working together to have a positive impact on local and state education by promoting the interests of students first, advocating current issues and opposing harmful agendas, and supporting candidates for political office as well as current officeholders who impact these critical educational matters.

WE BELIEVE

We believe that all students are entitled to a world-class education that prepares them to excel in college and/or the workforce and that they should be held to the highest possible standards of academic and civic excellence.

WE SUPPORT

We support the teachings of Martin Luther King Jr. that one should be judged by the content of their character and not the color of their skin. We oppose socialist equity agendas that promote equal outcomes rather than an opportunity for all.

WE OPPOSE

We oppose any teachings or training based on Critical Race Theory (CRT) or any components of CRT, including the 1619 Project, privilege based on skin color, and that America is a racist country.

WE BELIEVE

We believe that parents must be kept informed of all significant policy changes and other developments within our schools. We believe that parents must be provided meaningful opportunities to provide input into school policies and that such input should be taken into respectful and meaningful consideration in the formulation of school policies.

WE SUPPORT

We support parental choice in education through legislation that would allow tax dollars to follow the student and therefore provide more school choice for ALL students.

WE OPPOSE

We oppose any radical indoctrination that takes away control of parents to decide what social issues should be taught to their children.
