  • California Association of Independent Schools Statement on Gun
    XXXXX SFChronicle.com | Sunday, March 11, 2018 | A9 CaliforniaAssociation of IndependentSchools Statement on Gun Violence and School Safety As the Board of Directors of the California Association of Independent Schools, we join our Executive Director and the undersigned colleagues from our member schools —aswell as other independent, religious, and proprietaryschools throughout California —inanguish over the February14school shooting in Parkland, Florida. We extend our deepest sympathy to the families of the victims of this and everyschool shooting, and we stand in unwavering support of the survivors. We also stand in full solidarity with concerned educators nationwide. Today,school shootings are appallinglyroutine. Innocent lives of flourishingyoung people have been cut short, and students of everyage in countless communities are afraidtogotoschool. These students are our futureleaders. They and others, with amyriad of different perspectives, are also eager to change this paradigm by navigating our democratic processes, by engaging in respectful civic discourse, and by acting as catalysts for needed change, which we heartily applaud. We need to listen to their voices and respond to their pleas to make schools safe. As educators and as citizens, we are proud Republicans, Democrats, and Independents who believethatour countryneed notchoose between the rightful protection of responsiblegun ownership and the necessaryprevention of gun violence. We believe thatthe epidemic of gun violence in schools is an issue of non-partisan urgency, one thatdemands ahigher duty of care. We recall with admiration the ability to rise above partisanship on this issue displayed by two former Presidents, DemocratJimmy Carter and Republican Ronald Reagan, both of whom owned guns. In 1994, they worked together to help reduce the number of dangerous weapons available to private citizens.

The Association serves and strengthens its schools by setting standards of academic quality and ethical conduct, by providing for the professional growth of faculty, administrators, and trustees, and by promoting ra- cial, ethnic, and socio-economic diversity. Member schools vary widely, ranging in size from 32 to 1819 students; providing cam- puses that are urban, suburban or rural; enrolling student bod- ies that are coeducational or single sex; and offering boarding and day facilities. The majority of schools are secular, but many are religiously affiliated. About Independent Schools Independent schools are pre-collegiate, non-profit institutions that are independently governed by Boards of Trustees and supported by tuition revenue, charitable contributions, and endowment income, rather than by taxes or major funding from religious organizations.
