Let’s Shake the Trees: How to Actually Fully Fund San Francisco’s Public Schools

San Francisco’s public schools are facing a structural budget crisis, and our students are feeling the impact.

The levers to change this do exist. They are just hard to see and harder to pull.

On April 23 (7:30–9:00 PM), we’re hosting a virtual town hall to cut through the noise and focus on what actually needs to happen to fully fund our schools.

We’re bringing together leaders from SFUSD, City Hall, and across California’s education system to break down:

How school funding actually work
Where funding is getting stuck
What it would take to increase resources in our schools
What parents and communities can do right now to move this forward

Panel includes:

Maria Su, Superintendent, SFUSD
Rafael Mandelman, President, Board of Supervisors
Kunal Modi, Mayor’s Office
Phil Halperin, Silver Giving Foundation
Jill Golub, Campaign Strategy Expert

If you have ever looked at a school budget cut and thought, how is this still happening, this conversation is for you.
