San Francisco United School District removed Ethic Studies from being a mandatory course for all students but new research shows that Ethnic studies has more of a significant impact that people thought.

What happens to kids when we replace real teachers with machines? This push for robot classrooms puts politics over students and ignores what children actually need to learn and grow.

California is considering making community schools a permanent part of the state’s education funding system, a step that could help ensure more schools have the sustainable resources needed to support students’ needs.

Budget challenges are real, but neighborhood campuses should not be put on the table to solve the district’s instability.

At a time when ICE fear is already looming over immigrant families, SFUSD used such fear to call parents and move newcomer students OVERNIGHT.

This "safety" was used by the district as a pretext to carry out budget cuts and now immigrant students paid the price.

A Mission High School senior pushes back on the idea of building housing on SFUSD property, suggesting these privileged ideas overlook students’ lived realities.

Charter schools continue to close at a steady pace, leaving students and families scrambling for support. What’s often framed as “choice” is becoming a cycle of disruption with real consequences for communities.

Even after the school board UNANIMOUSLY voted down a plan that detailed over $100 million in SFUSD budget cuts, Superintendent Maria Su plans to go along with it anyways.

Su is going against the will of educators, administrators, students, families, and the board of education. This is unacceptable! We say: NO LAYOFFS. NO SCHOOL CLOSURES.

Absenteeism isn’t a student failure, it’s the outcome of decades of disinvestment in public schools.

Our communities deserve better than charter schools. Lack of oversight and accountability, pushing out marginalized students, and profit motives are what drive charters.

Inclusion and accountability are central to democratic public education. Charter schools do not uplift our communities in the way we want!

The sustainable community school movement is getting up and running, and its outcomes are promising. We need to expand access to community schools across all of San Francisco.

A rally preceding Tuesday’s school board meeting and the efforts of education advocates lead to the Board of Education unanimously voting no on a plan to drastically cut student resources and close schools.

Data can be a useful tool, but are we providing teachers with too much information? Some teachers are getting overwhelmed and stressed due to an influx of unhelpful data about their students.

As SF schools face massive cuts, educators delivered a 99% strike mandate.

Public education helps to break down barriers and uplift students. The school privatization movement aims to destroy this public good and replace it with a system that funnels profits into the hands of the few.

Threatening legal action towards protestors is a surefire way to turn a small movement into a bigger one. That’s exactly what happened when Superintendent Maria Su threatened the administrators union.

A new book suggests that a powerful force for democracy and against fascism is indeed at work every day, despite all that’s being done to undermine it. And it’s not in the halls of Congress. It’s in public school classrooms.

We cannot return to the days where students with disabilities were institutionalized in dismal conditions. We need to protect special education, fund public schools and programs, and push back on the movement towards school privatization.

Trump is attacking public education in this country, and his latest attack has targeted special education. To counteract this, we must reform Prop. 13 to insulate our education system from the harm Trump can cause.
