Congratulations BUSD (Brentwood, CA) for offering at least partial in-person instruction to families! Great leadership. It can be done.

You can hear this mom’s uncontrollable tears when the board voted 5-0 unexpectedly approving the new plan.

It’s worth noting the union led survey said only 30% of Brentwood, CA teachers wanted to come back, but the district survey one week later found a whopping 80% of teachers wanted to return!

Here is the full explanation from this mother. Brentwood is just south of Oakley. Recent events there and such a large involvement from the community seemed to have persuaded the BUSD board.

Final note. Here is this mother’s hopelessness from just one day earlier. Previous communications said if the parent survey came back less than 50%, a distance learning model would be for all for the rest of the school year. I’m glad to see the board changed course.

4/4

For what it’s worth, here is Matt Meyer’s Facebook profile picture wearing the same shirt. It reads “Keep Teachers in Berkeley.” Sadly, it says nothing about keeping families in Berkeley.
