On Sunday, one of our Lead Organizers, @SistahPecolia spoke to Hillcrest parents. Parents at schools all over Oakland - in the hills and the flats - agree that ALL Oakland students deserve #safeandraciallyjustschools and want to see an end to harmful school closures.

Oakland Unified School District's school closure plan disproportionately harms Black students. 6/7 schools slated for closure are either majority-Black schools or are schools where Black students are enrolled in higher-than-average percentages.

We know that @ousdnews' school closures disproportionately impact Black students, but did you know they also target schools w/ high #s of Black principals, teachers & staff? 70% of the principals who will lose their job due to closure are Black, that is simply stunning. #oakedu

Enrollment in OUSD is declining. I talked to some parents about why they've chosen other options, and heard from some school district leaders on what can be done about it. #oakedu #tellEWA
Why do so many families opt out of OUSD schools? It’s complicated. Thousands of children who live in Oakland don’t attend district schools. With more closures looming, we spoke to four families about why they decided to leave. oaklandside.org/2022/03/07/o…

Not only is @ousdnews busy planning 10 school closures and 22 welcoming schools. but also finding space for 2 charter schools at 4 schools this year and likely many more for next year. We "imagined" what some of that plan might look like... #oakedu
Superintendent Kyla Johnson-Trammell will deliver a quarterly report on the status of Black students during tonight OUSD meeting. The report is devoid of meaningful data take action: linktr.ee/rep4blkstudents

TODAY, after evaluating our Charge and OUSD’s 300+ page response, PERB issued a COMPLAINT against the District! This brings us one step closer to a hearing this spring in front of an Administrative Law Judge with the authority to stop school closures!
