Let OC Schools Open By District, NOT By County

The Issue

Governor Newsom has announced that schools will be virtual ONLY next month until the districts can show a 14 consecutive day decrease in Covid cases. This will be nearly impossible for Orange County, California because of cities like Santa Ana and Anaheim who have high percentages of positive cases.

Districts like Tustin, Newport-Mesa, Huntington Beach, and Laguna Beach have much lower cases and could start safe, in person schooling much sooner, possibly next month. 

The re-opening of schools should be per cases per cities, NOT per county. Please sign this petition so we can get Newsom’s attention as soon as possible! Help us get our kids back to school!
