Welcome to our newest SAUSD thread – “Parent Issues!” We have added this thread by popular demand. Our 2009 SAUSD thread already has over 400 comments. Now we are offering a series of new threads so that our readers can focus on specific issues related to the SAUSD.
In this thread we invite parents, teachers and other community stakeholders to discuss “Parent Issues.” We all know that we won’t advance in Santa Ana unless we can get all our parents to support the education of their children. There are a lot of parents in our city who do in fact care – a lot – and who contribute so much to their schools and to the PTA.
In this thread we invite parents and others to discuss their successes and their challenges. Together we can make a difference in the SAUSD, despite the awful administration and Board of Trustees.
Office personnel have been working as school nurse stand-ins since nurses were cut to 2-3 days a week. This is a time-bomb for medical insurance lawsuits, yet the district and the union(s) have done nothing. Parents should know about this… who will you tell?
I know this issue is frustrating to all from administrators to parents. The certificated union has absolutely no say in this matter. From my experience in the district, parents are the only ones who can make a difference. Attend a board meeting and explain how important this issue is to you. Believe me, we all know how bad this situation has become.
