San Francisco schools are looking at cutting staff to offset a severe budget crisis. While the district is set to vote on looking at reducing staff, the teachers union is demanding the district to not make any cuts, and instead are calling on the state to increase funding.
The three school board members all have their say over being ousted in Tuesday’s recall vote, and soon-to-be-former board president Gabriela Lopez is saying the recall targeted “people of color, primarily women of color.”
Voters in famously liberal San Francisco ousted three members of the board who, critics argued, focused more on renaming schools than getting schools back into classrooms.
