WHAT IS MIDTERMS ON OUR TERMS?

Midterms on Our Terms is a youth-led, data-driven movement organizing people of all ages to take back school boards, build real power in our communities, and help young people lead and shape elections at every level in 2026 and beyond.

We’re organizing across
Florida and the nation to:

Speak at school

board meetings

Get more young people involved in politics

Organize local voter education, registration, and turnout campaigns

Build grassroots power where it matters most

Push back against political extremism

Shape the 2026 midterms on our terms

Why School Boards?

School boards shape what’s taught in classrooms, which books stay on shelves, how students are protected, and whose stories get told. But they’re more than that.

School boards are where Americans have the most power to fight fascism and protect democracy, across all levels of government, on every issue.

Instead of spreading our time and resources thin, we concentrate on school boards because:

The impact is immediate.

Of all forms of government, school boards are where real people can make the most direct impact, through public comment, organizing, and elections.

They’re the front lines of the education crisis.

Censorship, attacks on LGBTQ+ youth, and efforts to dismantle public education all begin here. We show up where the harm starts.

They build

real civic power.

Data shows that organizing around school boards drives engagement in other forms of government, turnout in local elections rises, and people stay involved longer.

They bring people together.

School boards are one of the last civic spaces where people, across political lines, still gather to debate, collaborate, and act on shared values.

They develop lifelong leaders.

When students get involved here, they don’t stop. They vote. They run. They lead. This is how we grow a movement.

Our Story

SEE Alliance was founded by young people in Florida who were tired of waiting for someone else to save our schools, protect our rights, or fight for our futures. We started small and built one of the most effective youth movements in the country.

From public comment podiums to protest lines, from voter drives to legislative advocacy, we’ve been doing the work.

Everything we do right now is part of one nationwide, long-term movement: Midterms on Our Terms.
