Stop Arnold, Starting Now

The time to stand up and oppose Arnold's attack on teachers and schools is upon us. He has made his choices and finalized his initiatives. There is no longer any question about what we are up against. Now its time to understand what's at stake and take action.

I will devote considerable time and energy here on this blog to researching the school related initiatives, and reporting on the initiative campaigns. I hope to report on all sides of the campaign, both the opposition and backers of each initiative. Make no mistake, I am a partisan and I will not make any pretense of objectivity here. But I will attempt to represent the opposition's point of view.

This is not a single issue blog. We're not hijacking the discussion here. SFUSD still faces a huge deficit. Enrollment policy and the Diversity Index are still in play. But this summer will be an important time for Arnold's opposition to come together and form an effective coalition. I hope we can bring the voice of San Francisco's school community to the fore.
