300+ Redwood City Parents and Youth Come out for Candidates Ed Forum!
More than 300 Redwood City parents and students come out to attend the Redwood City Candidates Forum on Education!
On Oct. 8, more than 300 Redwood City parents and youth came out to a community forum on education hosted by Innovate Public Schools, a nonprofit working to ensure all Bay Area students get a high-quality education.
“This is the biggest candidates forum I’ve seen in a long time,” said Speaker Pro Tem Kevin Mullin, who authored legislation to pilot a mail-in election this November that he hopes will boost voter participation.
The forum at Sequoia High School was led by local parents and youth who shared their stories and asked candidates questions about the achievement gap, housing for low-income families, the city’s role in education, school choice and how schools can better support diverse students.
