CA's most vulnerable students have been hit hardest by the COVID crisis, and they deserve the resources intended for their education to reach them. Governor Gavin Newsom, sign #AB1835 and keep the equity promise at the heart of LCFF. Linda Darling-Hammond #closetheloophole

It’s going to be hard to justify not supporting this if you say that you’re for #equity, even in the midst of a pandemic. #AB1835

Two great appointees! Great choices, Governor Gavin Newsom Gavin Newsom. Brooks Allen and Debra Brown will both do a great job!

Thank you to the 670+ Pro-Kid organizations who supported equity in schools by signing on to a letter to ensure that targeted education funding for students from low-income households, English Learners and foster youth is actually directed to support them. (1/2)

More statewide orgs, advocacy orgs oppose Legislature's return to school plan ahead of hearing today ACSA CSBA @CCSESA Public Advocates Inc Children Now edsource.org/news-updates#m…

My latest for The Hechinger Report and Lillian Mongeau Hughes, who believed these women's stories needed to be told, featuring Connie Leyva, Delaine Eastin, Jean Sinzdak of CAWP, Dr. Sarah Schoppe-Sullivan, Samantha Tran of Children Now, Dr. Daisy of California Community Colleges, and Heather Hough of PACE.

“Pandemic recovery isn’t happening in a uniform way. There’s a much larger impact on low-income communities, and we want to make sure they have high-quality distance learning opportunities if they need it,” said Victor Leung/ACLU SoCal. #caedu #edchat edsource.org/2021/californi…

Gov. Gavin Newsom and CA lawmakers must invest in improved virtual learning options in the #CABudget. The pandemic isn't over for everyone. While in-person learning is essential, families shouldn't have to choose between their health & safety and a high-quality education.

“It’s mind boggling that what should be a top priority issue in the budget is apparently something the governor is not supporting.” @TedLempert #ChildCare4CA #RaiseTheRates subscriber.politicopro.com/states/califor…

.Governor Gavin Newsom Gavin Newsom has been championing key supports for kids and is passionate about #earlychildhood, but it’s critical that this state budget includes significant increases for early childhood and supports for #childcare workers #ProKidCA

After a challenging year for California families, students are finally returning to the classroom. But not every family is ready to transition to in-person learning. Find out what options you have for your student’s wellbeing and academic success. aclusocal.co/distance-learn…
