NASSP reacted to Fiscal Year 2027 federal education budget proposed by the Trump Administration:
"This budget asks the most vulnerable students in America to bear the burden of federal cost-cutting," said Ronn Nozoe, CEO of NASSP. "While we're thrilled NASSP school leaders successfully pushed for additional funding for students with special needs, slashing programs that support English learners, migrant students, and educator preparation will cause lasting harm to our kids. Only months ago, Congress showed that it can put children and families before politics, and we urge them to do so again by prioritizing public education during negotiations."
Last year, NASSP brought hundreds of school leaders and students from the National Student Council to Capitol Hill to give the school community a seat at the table during budget negotiations. You can find NASSP's legislative agenda here.
