I guess Teachers are threatening a Strike because they want 100% of the Budget!

This is why parents are forced to fundraise for ART- MUSIC- SCIENCE- PE and to pay to park - to ride the bus etc.

The State of California limits funding to 2007-08 levels of funding + inflation not to be reached until 2021.

The State has stolen $77 BILLION from wealthy suburban school districts since 2007-08

The State has stolen $1.56 billion from CUSD alone- it is time to demand FAIR FUNDING from the State of California!
