Welcome!

FACS' mission is to celebrate and defend our public schools through advocating for fully funded, just, safe, and inclusive learning communities for all students. We believe that public education is a public good and that our schools are the heart of our community.

We aim to bridge the gap from home to school, school to leadership, and leadership to our key decision makers.

Our goal is to empower families to proudly choose to attend our public schools and to have our public school systems be the schools of choice in our community.

When you invest in our children, you invest in our community!

What Weโ€™re Up To

๐Ÿ“ฃ Buncombe Countyโ€”this is our moment as public education is at a critical crossroad.

Join teachers, staff, parents, students, school board members, local and state elected officials, and community members on February 12 as we come together to advocate for fully funded, fully resourced public schools here in Asheville and Buncombe County.

Weโ€™ll center the needs of our EC/special education students, share real stories from our schools, and discuss concrete solutions to support students and the people who serve them every day. Share your story here!

Because education is not a budget line.
Itโ€™s the heart of our community.
