Announcement is a little premature. The Teachers still have to vote to ratify it.

The loss of one person touches so many.
while it might seem at times as if there is no reason for…Read More continuing on.
The gap left where you once stood is hard to fill and often never can be filled enough.
So if you're reading this and you have doubts as to your worth, trust me.
Your single contribution to even a single persons life who you have not yet met will more then compensate for trudging through the hard times of today.
You very well could be the reason someone else finds their strength to get up the next day.
Every day can be new and fresh, but you have to find the courage to seek it.
Hearts go out to the family & friends & all who have been touched by this.

Some other facts:
-214 teachers have retired from FUSD since 2008. Who will replace them and the…Read More additional ones who left for better pastures? There is a national shortage of new teacher candidates.
-A BEGINNING teacher in Pleasanton starts with $6000 more in salary. I've lost count of the district STAFF and ADMINS who have quit to go work for Pleasanton.

Why believe anything the educators say.
Pass the lottery so that parents won't have to pay for all…Read More of the extras. The money was used for teacher's salaries and we still write checks for hundreds of dollars at the beginning of each school year. Teachers put out a list of wants for the year that include paper towels and Kleenex.
We need a school bond so that we can buy new roofs and air conditioners. (This scam has worked twice since my kids have attended Fremont schools.
Sex education is pre-viewed for parents. A different edition is presented to our kids.
Mission High School has numerous AP classes. The others one or two.
Almost all bus service has been cut. Those remaining have to shell out $$$$.
Look in your child's class room. The district spends about $9000 per student. 25 kids x $9k = $225,000 per class room. Even if the salary/CSTERS cost per teacher is $150,000 the district is still making $75K profit on each classroom in the district. Show me where the money goes. These schools have been paid for a long time ago. Ardenwood and Forest Park were paid for by the home developer.
More than 214 teachers have retired, its just that some still show up to the classroom and put a DVD in the player.

The teachers belong to a left wing union. They only support radical concepts like killing babies…Read More etc....no more money for them..

Why is it, that the Mission San Jose schools are recognized year after year as distinguished while…Read More the rest of the school district suffers? When will FUSD focus on the other schools that are not,,,,in the most expensive, least diverse MSJ area? Shame

For those interested in how much money goes to California education system from the California…Read More Lottery please see the following link. One needs to remember, when the lottery started and made the promise that funds would roll to education, the lottery commision could not dictate how the funds were spent. Instead of becoming "extra" money, the lottery proceeds become budgeted income.
Just think where your property taxes would be without the money flowing from the lottery.
