Guardians of Education:
Twenty Years of AQE

Tonight is the night!

AQE's Guardians of Education celebration kicks off at 6 PM, to recognize those on the front lines of the fight for education justice in New York.  We are proud to be honoring Luis Torres, Principal of Community School 55 in New York City; Leanne Nunes, Executive College Director of IntegrateNYC; and the Rochester Community Task Force.

This year marks 20 years of advocacy for AQE, and tonight will be a celebration of our many accomplishments together. Our packed program includes performances by the Resistance Revival Chorus, Rochester student Sarah Adams and New York City artist Jazmine Hayes. You can still join us for this virtual celebration by registering now!

We would like to thank our event co-chairs: Jamaal Bowman, Democratic Nominee for New York's 16th Congressional District; New York State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli; and Cynthia Nixon and Christine Marinoni; as well as our host committee below.
