As Supervisor, I will fight to ensure any resource alignment does not negatively impact our communities, particularly for immigrants and historically underserved. School closures can disrupt our students, impact logistics for families, cause blight in our neighborhoods, and result in additional financial impacts.
I am firmly against closing schools in San Francisco. Schools are cornerstones of our communities, and we should instead leverage creativity in managing the real estate portfolio and rethink how we deliver education.
SFUSD needs to balance their budget, but we cannot move forward without more clarity on how this process will impact and serve our students. Families need and deserve transparency and predictability ASAP.
We must aim higher-not just to keep schools open but to make SFUSD the best in the country. I attended ENDC's 'SFUSD Forum Accountability in Education' in March and saw firsthand the distress in the Bayview community and the weak responses from SFUSD leadership.
