Asheville City Schools
Need Our two Cents

Asheville is proud of our public schools. We have excellent teachers, staff, and leaders across our school district. Unfortunately, our schools are currently drastically underfunded. We are now coming together to tell our local elected officials that we believe in fully funded schools. The 2 cents campaign is the first step in this journey.
