SF Legislators Call Bulls**t on School District's Scheme to Get $12 Million In State Funding for Reopening San Francisco's legislative delegation in Sacramento is calling out the SF School Board for their attempt to reap the benefits of a state funding program without actually complying with the spirit of the legislation that backed the program. Assembly Bill 86 was signed into law back in March as an attempt by Governor Gavin Newsom and Democratic legislators to incentivize the reopening of schools in this school year. It required school districts in counties where there were fewer than 7 daily new COVID cases per 100,000 residents to offer in-person classes for all elementary school students and at least one grade of middle of high school by May 15, in exchange for a piece of the funding. As the LA Times noted at the time, the program still allowed for some discretion in districts where teachers' unions were resistant to returning to classrooms, and the requirements were still focused on the state's youngest students.
