Education is in crisis with its active dismantling by the insane federal administration and the decades of neglect.
This is the opportunity for us to reimagine and offer a new deal for education in California that goes beyond being on the defensive in this moment.

When young leaders like Triston Ezidore step up, it gives me hope for public education’s future. From student body president to the youngest School Board President in the US, and the first Black, gay man to serve on his board, he’s proving what’s possible when lived experience meets purpose.

Flashback — can’t believe it’s been over a decade since I joined the California Faculty Association at Cal State LA.
I’ve made lifelong friends while being part of impactful work. I’m especially grateful for the experiences that led me to serve as Chapter Vice President and Faculty Rights Chair.

The headline is a little overstated. California’s new literacy law doesn’t “change how kids learn to read” overnight, but it does add phonics-based reading training and new K–8 textbooks. Teachers already teach phonics, but there’s often no funding attached for training.

Every year I meet students who are scared to be themselves, and this year that fear feels heavier. The people in power should be protecting them, not making them targets.
National Coming Out Day means standing up for our kids when it’s hardest. I’m not backing down from that.

Michael Benjamin’s journey through Sacramento schools to School Board is what public education was meant to create: leaders who give back. A lifelong educator, he’s turned classrooms, barbershops, and neighborhoods into places of hope, building spaces where education meets equity and opportunity.

Grateful for support of Raeena Lari, the first Pakistani-American & Muslim elected to the Santa Clara County Board of Education. As an economist & advocate for equity, she knows student wellness & justice are inseparable from learning. Together we’ll fight for schools where every child can thrive.

Sacramento, our schools don’t need more career politicians. They need us—students, teachers, and families—shaping schools together.
