On Sunday, Breed announced she would \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12005932/sf-mayor-sends-team-to-address-crisis-at-school-district-but-dont-call-it-a-takeover\">send a team of five experts\u003c/a> led by top city administrators to help the district “stabilize.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This year, when we balance this budget without school closures at this time, it’s going to give us an understanding of what the school district has to do long term,” Breed told KQED on Wednesday. “Because the fact is, no one can say, ‘We’re going to keep all the schools open’ or ‘We’re going to close the school.’ No one can say that because we don’t have the facts.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district’s budget deficit is projected to reach $148.5 million this school year, and intervention by the California Department of Education has already begun. While the district is required to pass a balanced budget by December, it has also been moving forward with plans for its first campus closures in 20 years — which district officials have said are meant to make up for steadily declining enrollment, not to cut costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed did not confirm any timeline for the next steps for school closures, which the district ultimately will decide. District officials on Tuesday said they still intend to share out a short list of schools that could face closure by October; that target was \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12004831/anxious-waiting-game-drags-on-as-sfusd-delays-list-of-school-closures\">pushed back from last week\u003c/a> after Superintendent Matt Wayne said officials needed more time to “carefully review everything.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our goal is to set a timeline, which we don’t have at this point, but we hope to have it sometime in October to put parents at ease,” Breed said. “People need to have clarity, they need to have a timeline, and our goal is to get there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12004831 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/240916-UNIONSFSCHOOLCLOSURES-42-BL-KQED-1020x680.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the district’s initial timeline, the list of campuses recommended for closure would go up for a school board vote in December, with the affected campuses shutting down at the end of the academic year.

In an internal email forwarded to staff by school principals on Monday, SFUSD administrators Karling Aguilera-Fort and Davina Goldwasser said the workshop wouldn’t take a position on the Israel-Hamas war and that the training was “just awareness building.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Wednesday morning, Katrina Kincade, an SFUSD spokesperson, told KQED that the workshops would be rescheduled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We want to ensure each and every student and staff member feels and experiences safety and a sense of belonging in our schools,” she said in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Julia David, an English teacher at George Washington, said that the idea for the training originated among parents and staff concerned about the treatment of Jewish students in the city’s schools. She described incidents ranging from pro-Palestinian student walkouts to protests of war to reports of “Free Palestine” being written on campus to graffiti of swastikas on campuses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also said the Jewish Student Union, which she sponsors, had been made to feel uncomfortable on campus by staff who identified as pro-Palestine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12003439 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/UCSFProPalestineProtest1-1020x792.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We thought that it was really important to have training about Jewish identity in a multicultural society led by Jews,” David said. “Being a Jewish student in the middle of a really charged political time has brought unique challenges to our school and to our students, and to our educators and our parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This training is just about educating people on what the Jewish identity is and our experiences.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>David said she and a small group of other Jewish parents and staff reached out to the American Jewish Committee, one of the oldest Jewish advocacy organizations. The nonprofit agreed to provide the workshops at no cost to the district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parent Lee Filner pointed out that the AJC was chosen by the Biden administration to lead the national effort against antisemitism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There have just been too many antisemitic incidents in the district,” Filner said. “It’s leading a lot of parents I personally know to flee the district for private school, and we just can’t afford to lose more students from the district. Especially in this budget situation, because we’ve created a hostile environment for students just because of who they are.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An email announcing the workshops reached a group of Jewish parents and political organizers who are critical of Israel. Alex Lantsberg, a Jewish parent of students at two of the high schools on the workshop list, said he was shocked and dismayed when he learned about the AJC-led training.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Educating people on antisemitism is absolutely imperative in this time when antisemitism is being used to justify an ongoing genocide,” he said. “If SFUSD wanted to actually assist its faculty and staff, it would be best to do so in a way that actually recognizes the multiple strands of Jewish thought regarding the question of antisemitism and how all of these things come together.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parents of Palestinian students in the district, like Sonya Awwad, questioned how closely the AJC’s values align with San Francisco’s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a group that openly opposes a cease-fire in this war and does not have a neutral position in the conflict,” she said. “And San Francisco did vote on a resolution for a cease-fire, so that in itself seems conflicting.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Progressive groups affiliated with SFUSD, like the Arab Resource Organizing Committee, the Council on American-Islamic Relations and Jewish Voices for Peace, criticized the workshop. The groups called for the district to hold a similar training about Islamophobia or anti-Palestinian sentiment, which they said is also on the rise, according to a joint press release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, Awwad and a small group of parents met with administrators to discuss the war’s impact on their children. Awwad said parents described bullying, racism and isolation plaguing students, particularly those with family in Gaza.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12002125 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/20240827_SFUSDPROTEST_GC-10-KQED-1020x749.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Any kind of anti-racism training is important,” Awwad said. “So why are our students’ concerns not being met with training that would advocate for them as well?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several parents who advocated for antisemitism training said the overwhelming political messaging coming into their children’s schools made it difficult for students to learn. Some voiced their frustrations with AROC, a group that has come under scrutiny for facilitating student walkouts at SFUSD schools. After a parent group demanded an investigation into AROC’s contract with schools last year, students rallied outside of the district’s office in the organization’s defense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seth Brysk, the AJC’s regional director of northern California, hopes the antisemitism training will be rescheduled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We neither endorse nor oppose candidates for office. We’re an apolitical organization, not only because that’s what the law requires, but we’re also known to be a nonpartisan organization that doesn’t engage in politics,” he said. “More importantly, I don’t see how that relates to anti-bias training about antisemitism.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly 50,000 students are enrolled in San Francisco public schools, which educate the majority of the city’s children.

In May, Berkeley Unified School District Superintendent Enikia Ford Morthel \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11985599/berkeley-antisemitism-hearing\">testified before Congress\u003c/a> on the district’s handling of antisemitism allegations in public schools after a group of Jewish parents, along with the Brandeis Center and Anti-Defamation League, filed a federal complaint in February alleging severe antisemitism in the district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In January, the U.S. Department of Education announced investigations into SFUSD and Oakland Unified School District for alleged civil rights violations and claims of religious discrimination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some SFUSD parents and local community groups raised alarms about the American Jewish Committee’s support for Israel. In an internal email forwarded to staff by school principals on Monday, SFUSD administrators Karling Aguilera-Fort and Davina Goldwasser said the workshop wouldn’t take a position on the Israel-Hamas war and that the training was “just awareness building.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Wednesday morning, Katrina Kincade, an SFUSD spokesperson, told KQED that the workshops would be rescheduled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We want to ensure each and every student and staff member feels and experiences safety and a sense of belonging in our schools,” she said in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Julia David, an English teacher at George Washington, said that the idea for the training originated among parents and staff concerned about the treatment of Jewish students in the city’s schools. She described incidents ranging from pro-Palestinian student walkouts to protests of war to reports of “Free Palestine” being written on campus to graffiti of swastikas on campuses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also said the Jewish Student Union, which she sponsors, had been made to feel uncomfortable on campus by staff who identified as pro-Palestine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"aside","attributes":{"named":{"postid":"news_12003439","hero":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/UCSFProPalestineProtest1-1020x792.jpg","label":""},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We thought that it was really important to have training about Jewish identity in a multicultural society led by Jews,” David said. “Being a Jewish student in the middle of a really charged political time has brought unique challenges to our school and to our students, and to our educators and our parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This training is just about educating people on what the Jewish identity is and our experiences.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>David said she and a small group of other Jewish parents and staff reached out to the American Jewish Committee, one of the oldest Jewish advocacy organizations. The nonprofit agreed to provide the workshops at no cost to the district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parent Lee Filner pointed out that the AJC was chosen by the Biden administration to lead the national effort against antisemitism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There have just been too many antisemitic incidents in the district,” Filner said. “It’s leading a lot of parents I personally know to flee the district for private school, and we just can’t afford to lose more students from the district. Especially in this budget situation, because we’ve created a hostile environment for students just because of who they are.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An email announcing the workshops reached a group of Jewish parents and political organizers who are critical of Israel. Alex Lantsberg, a Jewish parent of students at two of the high schools on the workshop list, said he was shocked and dismayed when he learned about the AJC-led training.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Educating people on antisemitism is absolutely imperative in this time when antisemitism is being used to justify an ongoing genocide,” he said. “If SFUSD wanted to actually assist its faculty and staff, it would be best to do so in a way that actually recognizes the multiple strands of Jewish thought regarding the question of antisemitism and how all of these things come together.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parents of Palestinian students in the district, like Sonya Awwad, questioned how closely the AJC’s values align with San Francisco’s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a group that openly opposes a cease-fire in this war and does not have a neutral position in the conflict,” she said. “And San Francisco did vote on a resolution for a cease-fire, so that in itself seems conflicting.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Progressive groups affiliated with SFUSD, like the Arab Resource Organizing Committee, the Council on American-Islamic Relations and Jewish Voices for Peace, criticized the workshop. The groups called for the district to hold a similar training about Islamophobia or anti-Palestinian sentiment, which they said is also on the rise, according to a joint press release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, Awwad and a small group of parents met with administrators to discuss the war’s impact on their children.

Some voiced their frustrations with AROC, a group that has come under scrutiny for facilitating student walkouts at SFUSD schools. After a parent group demanded an investigation into AROC’s contract with schools last year, students rallied outside of the district’s office in the organization’s defense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seth Brysk, the AJC’s regional director of northern California, hopes the antisemitism training will be rescheduled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We neither endorse nor oppose candidates for office.
