All of California's kids deserve to thrive.  That's why this July, I increased funding for TK-12 special education by $2.4B — the LARGEST increase in history. This new school year, students and their families will have more resources and services to support their success.

Family engagement is key to student success, and the work happening at the Ontario-Montclair School District is a great example of that commitment in action. When schools and families work together, everyone wins. 📚🤝

Behind every confident learner is a network of caring adults – at home and at school. Parent engagement matters. Big shout out to Chula Vista Elementary School District for the incredible work they’re doing on this front…as seen in this video - youtube.com/watch?v=xqAFPRvR…
