Alexis Aguirre is a teacher, parent, and education advocate. She is the proud product of what public schools can do to change the course of a child’s life. She was able to overcome the compounded effects of poverty and the foster care system because of the safety and empowerment her teachers and schools provided. With over 13 years in education as an instructional assistant, public/school librarian, dual language teacher and instructional coach she has a comprehensive understanding of the inner workings of our school systems. She is a member of the Arizona Education Association and has served as local president, site representative and political chair in the Osborn School District. Alexis’ experiences as a student, teacher, and organizer drive her to continue fighting for the schools our children and educators deserve.
