I had the privilege of sharing the importance of breadth as embodied in the College of the Ozarks general education curriculum which prepares students to tackle a wide range of tasks at work and in life. Breadth is important for engineering graduates, half of whom are not in explicit engineering roles, as well as any graduate who wants to be prepared for the wonderfully diverse world we live in. https://lnkd.in/gWBcYERe

The recent decision by the Alameda County Board of Education to deny Hayward Collegiate Public Charter School’s request for grade level expansion is deeply concerning. This decision is perplexing and disheartening, given the remarkable achievements of the school’s students. Hayward Collegiate Public Charter School serves 99.9% scholars of color, with 60% being socioeconomically disadvantaged. The students have demonstrated outstanding performance on the annual state assessment (CAASPP): ✨ 67.56% of students met or exceeded ELA standards ✨ 64.87% of students met or exceeded math standards In stark contrast, within Hayward USD, only 33.37% of students meet or exceed ELA standards, and 19.37% meet or exceed math standards. These numbers highlight the incredible work being done at Hayward Collegiate. The vote in favor of the expansion, supported by Trustee Ken Berrick and President Janevette Cole, recognizes the importance of supporting schools that deliver exceptional results for children. It is crucial to bring this matter back to the agenda for another vote. The students at Hayward Collegiate deserve every opportunity to thrive and succeed. Supporting the expansion of a school that is clearly making a significant difference should be a priority. Let’s rally together to ensure our children receive the education they deserve. #EducationMatters #SupportOurSchools #HaywardCollegiate #AcademicExcellence #EqualityInEducation #hayward #california Alameda County Office of Education #charterschool #publicschools #publiceducation
