Congratulations to our 52 Berkeley Adult School graduates! Ranging in age from late teens to their 60s, these inspiring individuals prove, as one graduate beautifully put it at commencement: "It is never too late, and you are never too old to do something that inspires you."

Although many districts in CA have student board member positions, it’s rare for them to be paid, said CSBA's Troy Flint. "The concept of involving student board members more fully, including compensating them in some very rare cases, is gaining momentum.” edsource.org/2025/west-cont…

Excited to be sworn in for my second term! As a child of immigrants, English language learner, and first woman in my family to graduate from college, I was proud to take the Oath of Office wearing my Nicaraguan huipil shirt. I am committed to protecting our diverse student body.

After visiting tribal communities across the country, one thing has been clear: when young people reclaim their native languages they reconnect deeply with who they are & where they come from. That’s why when we invested in multilingualism we ensured we included native languages.
