San Francisco lawmakers on Monday accused their own city s school district of exploiting state reopening incentives, saying they are gravely concerned that one of the biggest districts in California has failed to make a genuine effort to welcome back students in-person.
Democratic Assemblymembers Phil Ting and David Chiu and Sen. Scott Wiener asked the state not to give San Francisco Unified School District a reopening grant. They called the district s plan to bring back 12th graders for a handful of days a poor attempt to exploit a perceived legal loophole in a letter to State Controller Betty Yee and State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond.
