    If you don’t stand with teachers, and you don’t stop the horrible conditions under which teachers work, and you don’t stop closing down our schools, you ought to be ashamed of yourselves! VOTE TO SUPPORT TEACHERS!!

    this isn’t rocket-science. you’re ruining our schools if you oppose this resolution, and you will be handled at the ballot box.

    Teachers are the foundation of a successful school system. Treat them with respect.

    Absolutely support this. It is important that City Council go beyond these words. What actions will you take? The School Board has demonstrated their interest in eliminating Oakland public schools and replacing them with charter schools that use our tax dollars but are not publicly accountable. It's time for conversations at the state level to get at solutions to saving our public schools. Part of the discussions needs to be the racism in standardized tests.
