Event Details

Enough is enough! San Francisco Unified School District is forecasting budget cuts of 10%-20% for the 2010-2011 school year. It is imperative that we find real short and long-term solutions to this unprecedented budget crisis!

On February 25th, join a coalition of parents and city organizations in a community discussion moderated by Michael Krasny, host of KQED’s award-winning Forum.

• Mark Leno, California State Senator
• Fiona Ma, California State Assembly
• Tom Ammiano, California State Assembly
• Carlos Garcia, SFUSD Superintendent of Schools
• Debbie Look, California PTA
• Jim Lazarus, SF Chamber of Commerce
• Leaders from business and education non-profits

Let's look for funding solutions and ways to bring about long-term change together.
We are Funding Our Future.

The discussion will focus on:

• Creative funding solutions to pending budget cuts
• Smarter long-term budget reform
• Local and state-wide parental advocacy efforts
