Green New Deal for Public Schools

#WashUOwesU It's time for WashU to pay their fair share


Our Demands

Affordable, Safe, Green Social Housing for Unhoused Students in St. Louis 

Convert vacant SLPS buildings into safe, full-service, green housing for unhoused students and families.

Universal Pre-K and Expanded Childcare Programs in U City 

Fund universal pre-K & childcare programs with union wage staff positions.

Green Spaces for our School Communities 

Foster community connection by installing green spaces in and around schools for gardening and outdoor learning.

Hazard-Free Schools 

Remove harmful materials such as lead and asbestos from schools.

Schools as Public Health Centers 

Provide basic health services such as vaccinations, physicals, and mental health services.

Join the Movement

Washington University has a $12.5B endowment and property worth millions—but pays almost nothing in property taxes.

Meanwhile, public schools just blocks away lack resources to meet our families' needs.

It’s time to right this wrong. 

Join St. Louis DSA in our call for WashU and Chancellor Andrew Martin to provide $15M per year to fund a Green New Deal for Public Schools.
