Your Champions for Public Education

Thank you for using Schoolhouse Ballot to find your champions of public education for the 2024 General Election. There’s a lot of work that takes place in order to arrive at the list below.

Candidates for state and local offices and the state legislature are invited to fill out a questionnaire and attend an interview hosted by local educators. The interview panel is made up of teachers, retired educators, and support professionals throughout Pennsylvania who volunteer their time to meet candidates, study their positions and discuss those who are best for students and public education. A similar process is conducted for national and congressional candidates.

The process to become a champion of public schools is thorough, fair, and based purely on a candidate’s positions. Political affiliation is not considered.
