It was a pleasure to attend Kaiser Theater Group's presentation of PEACE SIGNS at Horrall Elementary School on 4/1/14! Many parents and students attended and learned about interpersonal relationships -  and also enjoyed a delicious dinner!  Thanks for the invite!  I hope that more schools in SMFC can benefit from the wonderful educational shows that are offered.

The Superintendent’s Next Steps Committee has met twice at the District Office and once to tour some of the SMFC schools.

Their next meeting will be on Monday, April 7th from 5:30-7:00 at the SMFC District Office. This discussion will be the first on issues surrounding current “inequities” in our district.

The Public is encouraged to attend these important meetings, as observers, and questions may be posed for further consideration before the close of each meeting.

I hope that you will consider coming to these important meetings to hear the considerations and ideas as we work to identify the best solutions to equity & capacity issues in the San Mateo-Foster City School District!

State Board of Education Approves Emergency LCFF Regulations after Listening to 7 hours of Testimony

1/16/2014

On Thursday, January 16th, I traveled to Sacramento to testify with 4 other SMFC District leaders, including Colleen Sullivan (SMFC School Board, President), Lory Lawson (SMFC School Board, Trustee), Dr. Cynthia Simms (SMFCSD, Superintendent), and Laura Phan (SMFCSD, CBO), before the State Board of Education in support of keeping "local control" in the Governor's Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) regulations.  340 speakers, including students, parents, teachers, school board members, superintendents, and others testified for 7 hours before the State Board.  Testimony was heard from approximately 160 governance teams!  Our team waited 6 hours and we each spoke for ONE minute!  Governor Brown visited the hearing in the morning and shared his thoughts on LCFF and the importance of the regulations, cautioning that they are only intended to provide guidance for true implementation at the local level, which was encouraging.  After hearing all public comments, the State Board unanimously approved implementation of the LCFF regulations on an emergency basis, as well as unanimously approving the beginning of the process to finalize permanent regulations.  It was an inspiring day in Sacramento!
