Please also firmly believe in funding these endeavors. It's becoming increasingly intractable to argue for equitable resources outside of activities not directly related to STEM. We're struggling to reach parity even with focus solely on STEM fields. Public schools around the country are always teetering on the edge of losing their PE, art, music, history and civics classes. We keep electing people that don't care. People that want to redirect funding to private institutions that limit access. The latest tax bill turned 509 education savings plans into a tax-evasion vehicle for parents sending their kids to private schools. It also penalizes states that use state income tax to more equitably fund schools.
