Don't assume that just because legislators grew up in your district or have children in your schools that they know how you would like them to vote on every education issue. Give legislators tours of your schools often, at least on an annual basis. Invite them to school events, and make sure they are on the mailing list for your district's newsletter. They won't be able to attend every function, but the more time they spend with you and the students, the more likely they are to support your cause.
