Abolition Education Pledge Form

Transform Education Through Abolitionist Principles

Education abolition isn't about tearing down schools—it's about reimagining learning environments free from punitive systems, surveillance, and policing. This Abolition Education Pledge Form empowers educators, administrators, parents, and community advocates to commit to meaningful transformation in their schools and educational spaces.

Why Abolitionist Education Matters

Traditional disciplinary systems disproportionately harm Black, Indigenous, and students of color, funneling them into the school-to-prison pipeline. By pledging to abolition education principles, you're committing to:

• Police-free schools that prioritize care over criminalization
• Curriculum transformation that centers marginalized voices and decolonizes knowledge
• Restorative justice practices that build community instead of punishment
• Transformative accountability that addresses harm without replicating state violence
