Yesterday was a monumental moment in Oakland education, as immigrant families came together to advocate for their right to vote in school board elections. Oakland City Council approved of the non-citizen voting measure, adding it to the ballot for voters to decide in November!

Don't miss Darcel Sanders' compelling piece in this morning's EdSource. As the CEO of GO Public Schools, she raises significant concerns about the ambiguous usage of the $23 billion relief funds. #learningloss #fundingtransparency #caedu
