Congressman John Robert Lewis at the age of 80. He passed from pancreatic cancer. Long receipt man lewis helped organize the 1963 march on washington and the 1965 Voting Rights match in selma, alabama. He was six main organizers including Martin Luther king junior of the washington march where he gave a speech at the lincoln memorial. Congressman louis often spoke of the importance of getting into good trouble. He represented georgia in the house of representatives from 1987 until his passing. Johnathan capeheart asked representative lewis what he would say to people who feel as though they have already been giving it their all but nothing changes. Lewis answered, you must be able and prepared to give until you cannot give anymore. We must use our time and space on this planet we call earth, to leave it better than we found it and now that need is greater than ever before. He will truly be missed. The San Francisco Unified School District is offering support to teach students from dist
Culture and competent care, multilingual contact tracing. Thank you for bringing that up. Supervisor yee thank you. This is everybodys responsibility. I dont see anybody taking responsibility right now. One last thing, in terms of resource distribution in districts, supervisor brought up this issue. My argument sometimes its counterintuitive.

It wont matter this year. In the future, i want to say that because its not fair to just say, little piece of pie, we should get more of it, because not taking into consideration that in hat bigger budget, 99. 9 , if you look at whats allocat
Clerk thank you, very much. All right. We have quorum. Thank you. Greetings and welcome for joining todays board of education meeting. Knowing that we all know this, i would like to say these are stressful and strange times, times we never thought would be visited upon us. I thought it was strange enough trying to wait out and resist the person currently occupying the white house. But now things have gotten more bizarre with the same person trying to bully students, families and teachers and other staff back into school buildings. Thats what were dealing with. Thats what its come to. Today we will be absorbing our fall learning plan. I know many will find aspects they will object to but this will find solace in the approach. This is the time for us to pull together collectively to row lie upon one another to make this year as good and meaningful as it can be for our childrens sake. And to continue to find, within ourselves, a sense of grace and compassion and flexibility as we move for
