We just got a resource teacher for the middle school and a social worker for the whole school after 50 plus days of instruction. So many schools are performing staffing gymnastics, putting teachers in positions that are not their expertise, asking them to wear several hats. This is not fair and it is not sustainable. Our students deserve permanent educators in every classroom. Educators who can be confident that they will receive their full paycheck and full benefits every month. Our students deserve teachers who can stay at a school for several years, getting to know their students and their needs. Our teachers and staff deserve Quality Resources to best serve all of our students and their range of academic and social emotional needs.

About other was raised by a coal miner in colorado when she was a teen. Her family came to san jose for what was supposed to be a temporary stay. While her father worked in the fields. When youve got a permanent job as a foreman, but other planted roots and went to work. She explains she was drawn to Public Service early on in high school. For the poor, we wanted to do have food drives. Clothing drives. And so our ideal, that idealism was reflected at that moment. But throughout my entire life, there has been examples of activism now myself. But in combination with movements. Later in life other married but divorced as a single mom to 5 children. She always kept a day job to support her family, but remained deeply involved in grassroots movements. She worked alongside civil rights icons like cesar chavez to help start the united farm workers union. The farm worker movement, i think activated so many was at a higher level. We had been grassroots people for a long time looking for equality and justice in pursuit our our our right to achieve elevations within society that in 1978 about other who was already entrenched in the community. Says a stranger walked into her office and introduced himself as a candidate for Council Member to represent east san jose. Thats when she says it was time to take the lead herself so that someone familiar with the people in local issues would be at the helm. I had no plans to run for the city council. Until that incident happened and that was sparked. But that was a motivator. So my understanding is the Voting System had to be overhauled so that each District Voted for their individual representatives and that thats how you were able to get elected. To break it up to the city into 10 district was the first opportunity. For people like myself from specific areas of the city to be elected, to govern. At 49 years old about other would be elected as the first latina to san Jose City Council in 1980, embodying the representation she so desperately wanted to see in local politics. She later moved on to serve as vice mayor and as a supervisor for Santa Clara County, i imagine theres a lot of pressure being the first i opened the door for a lot of people. Could that the door had been closed for a long, long time. And i think probably more important than being the first.

Lets check in on our forecast. Taking a live look outside of outside at the bay bridge. The embarcadero looking like a lovely day out there with just a touch of a breeze. Kyla. What else should we know . Well, we are going to hang on to these blue skies for today, but then we will see some clouds move in, but it is simply gorgeous out there right now. Wind has calmed down. We do have a little bit of a delta breeze happening there. And you see that is a little bit of offshore wind, but that should get a little bit better as we go throughout the day today showing about 14 miles per hour. Temperatures are really nice. 74 right now in san jose. Were 69 in hayward. 68 out of Pacifica Berkeley about 69 and were warming up in the north bay. Nevado just hit the 77 degree mark. So a very nice kind of average day today were inland. Were looking out for some of those low 80s. This puts us right where we should be this time of year now to get later into the day. I mentioned some clouds are going to pop up. But right now, boy, oh, boy, stormtracker 4 looking fantastic. As we zoom out there, you can see some of this kind of lurking offshore. And by the way, you can see the last system that rolled in providing some snow and a big storm system in the center of the country. Are they looking out for that Winter Weather since we had a good julian crowned, i think in california they sell the ticket. I thought we would take a look at concords forecast and do it in the lottery version here. So were going to be nice and warm today. Cooling down as we get a little shot of rain possible coming in friday into saturday. Warming up again on your sunday. And then as you can see as we get into next week, looking pretty good. But if we take a live look outside at the lovely blue skies here, i want to show you where the clouds come in, right . Because its going to be later today that we start to see thats about 09 30pm, tonight. Now, tomorrow we start off with a little sun and then heres where the front comes through. That could bring a little bit of rain to the north bay. You can see that kind of roll through rather quickly between about 05 07pm, and then it stays unsettled as we get into saturday morning by the time we get into saturday evening, we should start to get some clearing and all told its not going to be a lot of rain. So this is that first hit friday night to saturday. Theres another one expected as we get into monday about the same. So i think the north bay could pull off about a 10th of an inch of rain and thats about it. So again, it just keeps us kind it. More of that moisture laden environment, which is helpful for us here during fire season. But i think sunday will be a nice dry day for you for outdoor plans. And then well look out for another chance of rain as we get into monday. Back to you. All right. I have my jacket ready just in case. Thanks. Kyla.
