A few damaged negatives and unfixed proofs were digitally copied and then removed. Biographical/Historical note The first American school in the state was a private institution, established in San Francisco in April, 1847. Later the same year, the first public schoolhouse was built in 1847 on the southwest corner of the town plaza, now Portsmouth Square. On Feb. 21, 1848, the first school board was elected, and the school opened on April 3, 1848, led by Thomas Douglas. The Douglas school charged tuition but was under public auspices with partial public support. Word of gold soon drew citizens away from San Francisco, and the school was closed; the building was demolished in 1850. In late 1849, Mr. and Mrs. John C. Pelton opened a school in the First Baptist Church. By a resolution adopted by the Common Council, the Peltons' school became a free public school in April, 1850. Meanwhile, the Happy Valley School opened in July, 1850, near the corner of Second and Minna streets. Happy Valley was a private enterprise but free to those who couldn't afford it. The following spring, the Spring Valley School opened, also private but free to those who couldn't pay. In 1851, the Common Council passed the first Free School Ordinance, which allowed for the levying of taxes, divided the city into seven school districts, and established a free public school in each district and the annual election of a school board. The first school board under this organization hired Thomas J. Nevins as Superintendent of the Free Common Schools of the city. Happy Valley (later named Denman Grammar) was the first public school to open under this organization, immediately followed by the Powell Street School and Washington Grammar School. The following schools were organized in 1852: Rincon School, Spring Valley Grammar School, Union Grammar School, Mission Grammar School, and Clark's Point Grammar School (later named Garfield Primary). A number of private schools also continued to operate. An 1852 census indicated there were 2,050 school-age children in San Francisco. Known first as the Department of Common Schools, the department later became known as San Francisco Public Schools, the Department of Education, and the San Francisco Unified School District, its current name. The district is run by a superintendent hired by the Board of Education, an elected body of policy makers. In 1853, the State Legislature passed an act making Catholic or "ward" schools part of the public school system. The act was subsequently repealed in 1855, in an effort to separate church and state schools. However, ward schools were merged into the city's public schools. The first high school began in 1856 as Union Grammar School with 80 advanced pupils, both boys and girls. It was declared a permanent high school in January, 1858, and named San Francisco High School; the first class of 11 students graduated in December, 1859. The sexes were separated in 1864, with the girls transferring to Girls High School at the corner of Bush and Stockton streets, and the boys remaining at the newly-renamed Boys High School on Powell Street. Girls were allowed "to take a Classical course of study" at Boys High in 1888. The name was changed to Lowell High School in 1894, a coeducational school. Evening school was established in 1856 to accommodate youth who worked during the day. In 1864, the student population included those over 18 years of age. Other special classes and schools established over the years included the Oral School for the Deaf (in 1901), conservation of vision classes, Sunshine School (for physically disabled students), Health School and open air classes, hospital classes, speech correction classes, and adult English classes. "Part-time school" became known as continuation school in 1929. A form of foreign language instruction began as early as 1864, with classical study in Latin and German offered at Boys High School. In 1878, Superintendent A.L. Mann said that Spanish-language instruction was more valuable than French or German. Spanish instruction began in evening classes two years later, and the board passed a resolution in 1908 allowing for Spanish to be taught in high schools, alongside French and German. In addition to foreign language instruction, the U.S. Supreme court ruled (in Lau v. Nichols, 1974) that the school district must provide bilingual education to non-English-speaking or limited-English proficient students. However, in 1998, California voters abolished bilingual education with passage of Proposition 227. In 1852, the male teachers established the Teachers Institute to improve knowledge and the art of teaching. The school department ran a Normal School for teachers, initially consisting of weekly meetings, with the first class graduating in 1861. Other early professional organizations included the Teachers' Mutual Aid Society, organized in 1873, the Principals' Association of San Francisco (formed in 1888), and the San Francisco Teachers Club, organized in 1893. As the city grew, the number of teachers increased, and a number of teachers' councils were formed. In 1911, the Kate Kennedy School Women's Club was organized to further female teachers' rights including salary equity. The club was merged with other teachers' organizations into the Teachers' Association of San Francisco in 1917. This organization immediately became active in municipal and state movements affecting schools, children, and teachers. The same year, the Classroom Teachers' Association was also formed. The San Francisco Federation of Teachers, No. 61, was chartered by the American Federation of Teachers in 1919. In 1989, the SF Federation of Teachers merged with the SF Classroom Teachers Association, a chapter of the National Education Association, to form the United Educators of San Francisco.

  • 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.

  • Legislators of California
    The Legislators of California March 2011 Compiled by Alexander C. Vassar Dedicated to Jane Vassar For everything With Special Thanks To: Shane Meyers, Webmaster of JoinCalifornia.com For a friendship, a website, and a decade of trouble-shooting. Senator Robert D. Dutton, Senate Minority Leader Greg Maw, Senate Republican Policy Director For providing gainful employment that I enjoy. Gregory P. Schmidt, Secretary of the Senate Bernadette McNulty, Chief Assistant Secretary of the Senate Holly Hummelt , Senate Amending Clerk Zach Twilla, Senate Reading Clerk For an orderly house and the lists that made this book possible. E. Dotson Wilson, Assembly Chief Clerk Brian S. Ebbert, Assembly Assistant Chief Clerk Timothy Morland, Assembly Reading Clerk For excellent ideas, intriguing questions, and guidance. Jessica Billingsley, Senate Republican Floor Manager For extraordinary patience with research projects that never end. Richard Paul, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For hospitality and good friendship. Wade Teasdale, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For understanding the importance of Bradley and Dilworth. A Note from the Author An important thing to keep in mind as you read this book is that there is information missing. In the first two decades that California’s legislature existed, we had more individuals serve as legislators than we have in the last 90 years.1 Add to the massive turnover the fact that no official biographies were kept during this time and that the state capitol moved seven times during those twenty years, and you have a recipe for missing information. As an example, we only know the birthplace for about 63% of the legislators. In spite of my best efforts, there are still hundreds of legislators about whom we know almost nothing.

    Oral History Center University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California Del Anderson Handy Del Anderson Handy, a Consummate Educator: From a Childhood in the Rural South to the Chancellorship of San Francisco City College Interviews conducted by Caroline Crawford In 2015 Copyright © 2016 by The Regents of the University of California ii Since 1954 the Oral History Center of the Bancroft Library, formerly the Regional Oral History Office, has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Del Anderson Handy dated December 12, 2016. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes. All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley.

The assembly and entertainment functions of the Center became nonconforming in 1978, when the subject property was rezoned to the RM‐4 District, which does not permit such activities. The proposal is to continue the operation of the nonconforming entertainment and assembly uses, as well as the existing food and beverage service uses, which are conditionally permitted within the Nob Hill Special Use District. No enlargement or intensification of the existing nonconforming use, and no change to the physical configuration of the Center is proposed as part of the request for Conditional Use authorization. The maximum capacity of the auditorium would remain at 3,282 persons. SITE DESCRIPTION AND PRESENT USE The Project Site is located on the south side of California Street between Jones and Taylor Streets, Block 0253, Lot 020. The subject property is located within the RM‐4 (Residential Mixed, High Density) District, the 65‐A Height and Bulk District, and the Nob Hill Special Use District.

  • The School District of Philadelphia
    The School District of Philadelphia Potential Impact of $94.5M Revenue Reduction on School Budgets Methodology and Notes Key Green Text = Can Be Cut Red Text = Cannot Be Cut Notes: The “Enrollment Teachers” category includes Enrollment Driven Prep Teachers. 2011-12 budget data is post mid-year (December 2011) budget cuts. The Operating Budget Allotment in 2011-12 and 2012-13 is equivalent to the Per School and Per Student Allotments in 2010-11. Enrollment numbers are as projected in the spring preceding each budget year for the purpose of developing school budgets. All data is from the Staffing Management System (SMS). Data is as of 4/26/12. What can and can’t be cut? A decrease in operating revenues would have to be offset by cuts in the Operating Budget only, not in Grants. Grants budget information is shown for reference only. This analysis assumes the Enrollment Driven Teachers category is not cuttable because of maximum class sizes in the PFT collective bargaining agreement. This analysis assumes the following are not “cuttable” in FY13 because of state and federal service requirements; the extent of budget cuts that were already made in FY12; and the time that that would be required to reduce costs by changing the School District’s service model. o Gifted Support o Nursing Services o Special Education – High Incidence and Low Incidence o English as a Second Language (ESOL) o Bilingual Counselor Assistants Why are enrollments and poverty rates provided? Enrollment is important for context for Enrollment Driven Teachers (100% enrollment driven) and Operating Budget Allotment (partially enrollment driven).
