As we reopen schools and return to classrooms with a new infusion of desperately needed funding, I hope we all realize that “back to normal” won’t work for all students. Let’s take advantage of this exciting opportunity to reimagine and reshape California schools with equity at the center of every decision, ensuring that students most impacted by the pandemic and by systemic racism have the support and opportunities to achieve their full potential. California Teachers Association is part of a broad coalition intent on doing just that. You can learn more at reimaginecaschools.org. We must all work together to make this a safe and successful year for every student. I know we’re up to that challenge. I wish each of you a wonderful and successful year. CTA is here for you.
