@CA_Supt Tony Thurmond condemns plan to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education:

As if ICE agents hadn’t already engaged in enough despicable and disruptive behavior, now this. 10 ICE agents showed up at a school without judicial warrants and after they were turned away they were seen urinating on campus while young students were in session nearby. The utter

Raúl Grijalva was a devout community leader, unashamed progressive and statesman who believed in the bright potential of America even at our darkest hours. I’ll remember his quiet humor, his loyal friendship and how he always greeted me with a hug. May his memory be a blessing…

Today, I met with emergency response directors from school districts across the state to make sure that educators and families have the resources they need as our communities battle wildfires across Southern California. As Californians, we are coming together to support our

Wildfires are raging in Southern California — ACSA has some resources that could help during this difficult time. @CADeptEd released guidance in November for LEAs to consider when discussing school activities and closures due to wildfire smoke:

https://t.co/R0ubCUdcUb Trump plans to eliminate the US Dept. of Education “very early” and “send all education work…to the states.” He’ll either create an unfunded mandate for CA to enforce federal laws that protect students or eliminate those protections. Either plan harms

We thought Betsy DeVos was bad, but a wrestling executive who lied about having an education degree and wants to execute Trump’s plan to dismantle the department she’s been appointed to lead is dangerous for schools and the students we serve. Linda McMahon has no interest in

Just when we are finally making progress on ensuring children have safe and nutritious meals at school, Trump’s HHS nominee says he wants to eliminate the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition at the FDA. I helped to establish a universal meals program for all students in
