SPECIAL EDUCATION PARENTS

Saturday, June 19, 2021 2-4pm

ONLINE PRESENTATION ON HOW TO RUN FOR SCHOOL BOARD

It is clear that most school board members don’t really care about our special education issues. That could be largely due to the fact that they don’t have a child in
special education or some personal connection. Well we do and we need a voice on the board!

We need parents to run in our upcoming school board elections in 2022! Join us online Saturday, June 19th for an online presentation on how to run for your local school board presented by
a parent that has been elected to both the San Bernardino Board of Education as well as the San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District!

Please register via the following link:

Upon registration you will receive an email with the Google Meet link
(not Zoom) to the online presentation.

ACTION ALERT-- Blow the whistle on WESELPA  wrongdoing and speak up for children with disabilities 
Dear Friends,
 
Please support children with disabilities and their families by speaking up on their behalf.  You do not need to be in the WESELPA area to support our cause.
Please DM for email distribution list.
Suggested language (feel free to add your own details):
 
Dear School Board Members,
 
I wanted to express my disappointment in how your Superintendent voted on your behalf today at a meeting of the West End Special Education Local
Plan Area.  Your Superintendent voted to be a rubber stamp for the WESELPA Administration and ignored comments from many parents and students with disabilities.  Specifically, your Superintendent approved  a contract with the Department of Rehabilitation sight unseen.

From a SEAL...My public comments to @AltaLomaSD --Dear @ALSD_Super_Jim,
I am aware that ALSD is holding an in-person meeting tonight and unfortunately I cannot attend in person. I am requesting an accommodation as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Governor’s stay home
order. I have individuals in my family that are considered “high risk” & therefore I am strictly adhering to the Governor’s orders. Please read the comments below into the record during public comment:
Dear @AltaLomaSD Board and members of the public,
I would like to take the
opportunity to thank @ALSD_Super_Jim for his leadership in challenging a proposal by the West End SELPA to create a fund that would be used to collect sanctions against parents. This was a very encouraging gesture to parents in the community to show that perhaps there will be

From a SEAL: “I looked at my annual tax bill and saw that I'm paying taxes to District via the County tax collector. The voters at the City of Temecula passed a bond initiative to increase facility needs @TVUSD.

The same law firms who have attorneys used for bond
measures at Districts have lawyers within their firm who go to due process, federal court against students with disabilities.

@IUSD, SanD ieguito HS, @TVUSD and other Districts have legal agreements in Special Education with Dannis Woliver Kelly that are approved by the
elected school board.

I have a lot more to speak about how special education is tied into the bond measures at Districts within CA and how the same firms departments in Special Education and bond measures paid using our tax payer dollars intended to educate students.

Do you want your children or grandchildren back in school? Would you at least like the option? The leadership of @CentralSchoolD1 doesn’t believe you should have that option and has refused to apply for a waiver as other districts in the area have done. Many families need the
option of their children returning to school. In a recent tweet from @CSBA_Now, they shared that students across the state have been returning to the classroom this month and so far public health officials report no significant increase in Covid-19 cases. When it comes to
schools reopening, @CentralSD leadership is on the wrong track. Vote for Mario Silva to bring a parent’s voice to the board, one who knows what young families are dealing with during these challenging times.
