In Michigan, we fund scholarships for future educators, pay student teachers, and help full-time teachers with their student loans.
We’re making it loud and clear: We support our teachers!

You don’t have to be famous to influence people and make a difference in the world; you just have to have the courage to choose a life that values people and adds value to people.
Wherever you are and whatever you’re doing, you have the potential to change your world!

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and in Michigan, we've whipped up a recipe for success!
We worked hard to ensure all 1.4 million public school students have full bellies with free breakfast and lunch. Start your day right and eat a healthy breakfast today 🍎

Let’s broaden our vision of education beyond K-12.
Every single Michigander can count on a free public education from pre-K through an associate’s degree. That’s the Michigan guarantee.

You bet.

On today's agenda: preparing meals at Endeavor Elementary!
The people who cook, prepare, and serve our kids' meals make a huge difference in their lives. I'm here to roll up my sleeves and see the hard work that goes into this process every day.

You've probably heard that our FY2024 budget provides funding for every 4th grader in Michigan to get a free field trip to a state park.
Some will be lucky enough to visit Tahquamenon Falls State Park -- a Northern Michigan gem.

When I first ran for governor, someone said to me: “Just promise me you’ll show up as you are. Don’t dim yourself because of what other people think and feel, be who *you* are.”
I’ve carried that message with me through all the ups and downs.

A few weeks ago, the legislature passed the largest school aid budget in Michigan's history. And today, with the creation of MiLEAP, it's clear: Providing quality education and lifelong learning opportunities for Michiganders is a MUST, not a maybe.

Our budget makes Michigan one of the lowest-cost states to become a teacher by providing:
🍎 tuition-free training
🍏 student loan repayment
🍎 stipends while student teaching
Our teachers go above and beyond for our students, so we must to go above and beyond for them.

The most important investment we make is in our kids’ futures.
I’m so proud that we’ve passed the largest school aid budget in Michigan’s history because it means we’re giving our kids more. More books, technology, teachers, and resources – all devoted to their success.
