SAN RAMON VALLEY, CA A group of San Ramon Valley Unified School District parents have banded together to oppose a contentious effort to recall three board members who supported postponing in-person learning at the height of the coronavirus pandemic.
Notices of intent to recall have been sent to district board President Susanna Ordway and members Ken Mintz and Rachel Hurd.
Some parents were frustrated after the board unanimously voted in December to reverse course on its back-to-school plan and postponed a Jan. 5 return to class as COVID-19 cases spiked in the Bay Area and across the country. Younger students began returning to district classrooms earlier this month.

Child Marriage Still Practiced Across Canada, With an Increase in Common-Law Unions: Study
A new study found that child marriage still exists across in Canada, with an increase of cases in common-law unions.
According to the study, over 3,600 marriage certificates were issued to children under the age of 18 between 2000 and 2018.
This is the first research of its kind to shed light on child marriage in Canada. While most of the existing studies on the issue focus on developing countries, such practices in developed nations are often overlooked and understudied, the report said.
The study found the highest estimates of formal marriage in Alberta (0.03 percent) and Manitoba (0.04 percent), and the highest estimates of any type of child marriage (formal or common-law) in Saskatchewan (0.5 percent) and the territories (1.7 percent).
