#kindness1billion: Davis Magnet School students raise funds for OCDE’s Inside the Outdoors program |
Students at Davis Magnet School in the Newport-Mesa Unified School District are raising money for a good cause by selling one kindness gram at a time. Upon learning that the headquarters of OCDE’s Inside the Outdoors program was overtaken by December’s Bond Fire, students in the Peer Assistance Leadership — or PAL — program knew they had to help. During a special Zoom call on Tuesday, PAL students, along with their advisers Kelley Galen, Lisa Holman, and Katelyn Danahy, presented Inside the Outdoors with a donation for $2,464.

San Francisco School Board Rescinds Controversial School Renaming Plan |
The San Francisco Board of Education will ultimately keep the names of dozens of public schools in a case of high stakes second thoughts. The Board had moved to forge ahead with a controversial plan to change the names of 44 schools that honor figures linked to historical racism or oppression.
