While the South grows and transforms, our systems of education remain locked in historic patterns of disinvestment and inequality. In some of these states, like Tennessee, the money is already there. It's a matter of deciding to invest in all the children of the South.

We are keenly aware that what community means to an adult and what that means to a middle school boy are not always synonymous. Our boys have many different communities that they interact with regularly. They’ve got obvious connections with family, friends, and teams. But even the word friend is different these days. There are old school friends, new school friends, friends with whom we only talk to online. So the challenge is, how do we get all these super awesome unique individuals together to form a community? Learn the answer and more from our Director of Student Activities and Teacher, Ms. Andres in her new blog post! https://lnkd.in/gJ9myUfD

Lynwood Superintendent Gudiel Crosthwaite calls on our state leadership to fundamentally change how school facilities are funded so that all students have access to the facilities they need and deserve to focus on their education. Learn more: 👇 California students urgently need school facility funding from the state to modernize outdated and unsafe facilities. We must pass an education bond this year because there are billions of dollars in unmet needs. In moving forward with a much-needed education bond, however, it is crucial that our state legislature and the Newsom administration first fix the inequitable and unconstitutional system of school facility financing in California. Currently, low-wealth districts receive substantially less state facility funding per student compared to their higher wealth counterparts—even though they have greater modernization needs from compounded disinvestment from the state, and less ability to raise local funds. Through this system, wealthy school districts can build theaters and STEM labs and pools. But low-wealth neighborhoods, who have been historically ignored and underinvested in—who need more funds to meet the needs of their students—are stuck using what funds they have to repair HVAC systems and maintain the conditions of their existing buildings. The result is an unequal and unconstitutional system in which students in low-wealth districts receive an education inferior to that of their peers in higher-wealth districts.

California's public school facilities need our support now more than ever. Equitable funding is crucial to ensure that every child, regardless of their zip code, has access to safe, modern, and effective learning environments.

In moving forward with a much-needed education bond, however, it is crucial that our state legislature and the Newsom administration first fix the inequitable and unconstitutional system of school facility financing in California. Currently, low-wealth districts receive far less in state facility funding per student compared to their higher wealth counterparts ($7,000 vs. over $300,000)—even though they have greater modernization needs from compounded disinvestment from the state, and less ability to raise local funds.
