RAISE THE BASE! For California's Students

Recent signers:
Jennifer Hillhouse and 9 others have signed recently.

The Issue

Our schools are the heart of our community and they are struggling to keep up with costs. Over the past decade, the price of everything—from books to electricity—has gone up much faster than the State funding our schools receive. In recent years, much of the State funding we do receive is often a one-time payment or locked away for specific projects. 

What’s at risk? Class sizes, counseling, libraries, sports, technology, core high school classes, and fair/reasonable working conditions for those who serve California’s children.

What can you do? Join superintendents and school board members to let California's leaders know it’s time to get focused! Sign this petition to RAISE THE BASE funding levels for ALL of California's students!
