@PreetBharara The state of California!
By proving that habitual truancy laws target students of color, foster youth and students with Disabilities!
Systemic racism and discrimination is live and well in our schools and it's currently very legal!

Please share this with anyone in california that has a child with one of the listed health issues.

Just because a parent is not on board with this form.of distance learning, in no way shape or form means they want their kids back in the classroom!

It means You're current form of home learning is NOT WORKING!

After 5 years of trying to create better outcomes within this school district for kids like my son, I realized that there is no fixing a systemic issue that is embraced so deeply by the very ones who should be fighting it.

We are officially a private school.

So, let's get this straight: LA County parents who can afford it are paying adults other than teachers to watch their children in "closed" public schools while kids most in need struggle at home ... by @sic_sonja @LauraMNewberry https://t.co/G6ZfnPsqdg

@DavidJPalmerRC @OurKIDzCan @1in5advocacy @twiggyboty @DrTeresaSanders @Surviving_SpEd @moms4FAPE @IEPforParents @judithheumann @JolleyWampus This is my issue. I want to find a good program and make the district pay for it.

@PodSaveAmerica @KamalaHarris And did you ever look at why they dropped out? Not because of home! Because the schools dont address the needs of these kids! Where is the jail time for the districts? The people whom refuse to address the laws that protect these kids!
Watch for my story soon @CalSpedTalk

[Cal Sped Talk @CalSpedTalk]

My DISABLED son is 10 & has been a #HABITUALTRUANT sense preschool!
Not because I failed but because the school refuses to bend to his NEEDS! WHERE IS THE JAILTIME FOR THEM? I'll NEVER FORGET LAST YEARS HEARING AT THE POLICE STATION or cps @CalSpedTalk
@KamalaHarris @JoeBiden

As distance learning ramps back up tomorrow keep this in back of your head.
They must design it to fail because if it succeeds, people will want to keep it and when the time comes when kids go back to class, to many would leave public school!
It must fail.

We can’t leave behind seniors, vets, & people with disabilities during this public health & economic crisis. @SenSchumer, @RonWyden & I are announcing a plan to increase all Social Security checks by $200/month, the biggest benefits boost in nearly 50 yrs. https://t.co/hXGRR705dD

use your heads, lets say you got tested for Corona virus. you wait the 8-10 days for your call from the CDC and it is Negative. This don't mean you could not have contracted it the day after you got tested.

Just stay home!
