School Governance

CA Fwd announces a collaboration with the California School Boards Association to help our state’s school boards implement the Local Control Funding Formula.

In this interview, CAFwd spoke to Kathy Gomez, Superintendent at the Evergreen School District for her perspective on the ongoing changes to our schools.

In this interview, CAFwd spoke to Alma-Delia Renteria, a teacher and school board member at the Lynwood Unified School District for her perspective on the ongoing changes.

While the law changes how money is distributed, however, it does very little to change the actual amount of money that is going toward schools.

In this interview, CAFwd spoke to Micah Ali of the Compton Unified School District for his perspective on the ongoing changes.

Lawyers inevitably end up having the loudest voice in the room, which is why California Forward reached out to a former California teacher for one person’s ground level view on the lawsuit.

Californians believe that our school need to stay in school and do better in the classroom to be prepared for the 21st Century. The development of regulations by the State Education Board for the Local Control Funding Formula for public schools has been a big issue recently in the state. What do education leaders think about these new regulations?

The law will thrive or die based on the quality of communication and conversation that comes with it. If the Board’s recent behavior is any indication, LCFF just might have a fighting chance at making positive, groundbreaking change for California’s schools.

But like the quality of education schools offer across the state, the quality and even the commitment to parent engagement is anything but consistent.
