🚸 Back-to-School Crosswalk Safety Reminder! 🚸 As schools reopen, ensuring the safety of children walking to and from school is essential. Ruby Bridges, a civil rights icon renowned for her bravery and advocacy for educational equality, inspires us to prioritize safety in school zones. To support this mission, AAA Mountain West Group has partnered with the Ruby Bridges Foundation to host another year of Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day in November which underscores the importance of crosswalk safety. Here are a few key back to school reminders to help keep our students safe: 🛑 Slow Down in School Zones: Speed limits are reduced for a reason. Stay alert and drive cautiously. 🚶♀️ Yield to Pedestrians: Always stop for children and crossing guards in crosswalks. They have the right of way. 👀 Stay Focused: Eliminate distractions like texting or eating while driving near schools or bus stops. ⏰ Plan Ahead: Give yourself extra time during school hours to account for slower speeds and increased pedestrian activity. Stay tuned for more as we approach RBWTSD!

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. It's time 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. California students urgently need school facility funding from the state to modernize outdated and unsafe facilities.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 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.

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.

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.
