Public education helps all children achieve and contribute positively to a diverse and interdependent world.

Our Mission
CCAPE fills a critical gap in Columbia County by providing nonpartisan, community‑driven oversight and advocacy for public education. In a time when schools face political pressure, funding challenges, and debates over curriculum and materials, CCAPE offers a steady, values‑driven voice focused on what truly matters: students, learning, and the long‑term health of public education. CCAPE supports an educational environment where all students — regardless of background, identity, or ability — can learn, grow, and succeed.

Initiatives
Our members are concerned about state and local budgets that strip public schools of the resources they need to fulfill their mission. Education is the cornerstone of a healthy, thriving community. CCAPE shares information with the public to help address policy concerns.
