Early Bird Registration Begins for the 2020 Conference

Published by

We cannot wait to see you this spring at our Sixth National Conference, Neighborhood Public Schools: The Heart of Our Communities, which will take place March 28-29 in Philadelphia, the City of Brotherly Love. Friends of public education from all over the nation will be there to share their advocacy work as well as the challenges their community faces.

Don’t be left out! Register now and take advantage of our Early Bird reduced rate by clicking here and then entering this code: NPEAction2020EB. Make sure you reserve your spot soon. We are limited to only 500 registrations this year, and availability will go quickly. 

Your registration fee will include breakfast and lunch on Saturday and brunch on Sunday.

And remember, our Early Bird special rate is good only until October 1 for the first 100 registrations only. To get that rate, use this special code: NPEAction2020EB when you register.

After you sign up for the conference, be sure to register for a reduced rate room ($169) at our conference hotel. Our rooms will go fast! To reserve your hotel room click here.

If you need additional assistance to attend, please apply for a scholarship by clicking here. We have limited funds, but we will do our best to help.


If you can’t attend our conference, please consider helping someone who would like to come but who can’t afford the expense.

We always have requests from friends of public education, especially parents, who would like to attend but cannot afford to come. We do our best, but we have limited funds. 

Let’s join together and help those who need our support. Every donation that we receive during the month of September will be dedicated to a fund to help economically disadvantaged public school advocates attend. Please donate here to our conference fund. For every donation of $100 or more, we will send an autographed copy of one of Diane Ravitch’s best selling books.

Here is just one of our outstanding keynote presenters– Little Steven. You love his music. But did you know that he is a tried and true friend to public school teachers and promotes the teaching of the Arts in schools? Come listen to Little Steven and our other outstanding speakers who will be introduced in the days ahead.
