Former Mayor Marty Walsh called it Build BPS. Mayor Michelle Wu is rebranding it as the Green New Deal. It is the latest version of closing schools under the promise of building new ones.

The BEJA Pledge was created by Boston Public Schools Blackstone parents tired of having their school budget chronically cut year after year.

Our City, Our Schools. On Friday, March 13, in the middle of a public health crisis, the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) released a district review report and a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the Boston Public Schools and both parties sign the MOU.

We are parents, students, educators, workers and community members of Boston fighting for the schools our communities deserve. We are committed to working in coalition with the PILOT Action Group of ally organizations in the fields of housing, community development, healthcare and labor who are all concerned about the future of the PILOT program.
