To report candidates recommended by your local association, please send the name of the school district and recommendations to MNEA Political Director Elizabeth Zerr by submitting the Candidate Recommendation Form.
Missouri NEA local associations abide by a recommendation process that evaluates candidates based on their values, not party affiliation. They recommend candidates whose values closely align with MNEA's beliefs and legislative resolutions, which include protecting the rights of students and education employees; ensuring every student has a qualified, caring teacher; and investing in public education so teachers have the tools they need to help drive student success.
Candidates are interviewed by a committee that lives in your school district and knows the issues that are unique to your community.
