PUBLIC POLICY

The Alliance for Quality Education (AFQE) works to impact the passage of legislation and policies at the state, federal and local school board levels that improve the quality of public education in Greenville County.

Our activities include the following:

• Establish positions on priority public education issues impacting Greenville County Schools.
• Inform community parents, educators, and concerned citizens of the issues, our positions, and the actions they can take to influence decision makers.
• Promote our positions by meeting and communicating with our elected representatives.
• Coordinate state and federal public policy efforts with state education organizations, the local school district, local and state PTAs, and school improvement councils (SICs).
• Communicate with school district administrators and board members on local issues of concern.
• Hold community forums for school board candidates.
