Visited the great staff at the California School for the Deaf in Fremont. Our team there and in Riverside provide exceptional ASL education and supports for students. Our schools have openings for students and staff.

Congratulations West Costa Unified for your work to boost test scores and student supports. Thanks for the Northstar award. I am working to get more resources to support reading by third grade efforts, to house homeless teens, and to provide students with paid STEAM internships.
