As the school board redraws the Sequoia Union High School District into separate voting areas, we demand that it choose a map that will give Redwood City and East Palo Alto representation on the school board. Our communities have been chronically underrepresented on the school board - part of the reason that the board is ending at-large elections.

Now, the school board has a historic opportunity to do what is right.

We call on you to help Latino, African American, Pacific Islander and low-income communities have a voice in local education decisions by drawing fair and representative districts.



Español:

El Distrito Sequoia Union High debe asegurar la representación de comunidades de bajos ingresos en la junta escolar.

Mientras la junta escolar vuelve a trazar el Distrito Escolar Sequoia Union High en áreas separadas de votación, demandamos que elija un mapa que les asegure representación en la junta escolar a East Palo Alto y Redwood City. Nuestras comunidades han estado crónicamente sub-representadas en la junta electoral –parte de la razón por la cual la junta está terminando con las elecciones generales.

Ahora, la junta escolar tiene una oportunidad histórica para hacer lo correcto.

Les instamos a ayudar a que las comunidades latinas, afroamericanas, isleñas del Pacífico y las comunidades de bajos ingresos tengan voz en las decisiones locales de educación trazando distritos justos y representativos.
