Cheyenne loves her school and she’s worried about what will happen if a charter moves in to share the campus, as proposed by the school district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel like they don’t really care about how inconvenient it is for us,” said Cheyenne. “The board keeps saying ‘We’re taking empty rooms, we’re taking empty rooms.’ But that’s not true.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[soundcloud url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/252193139″ params=”color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false” width=”100%” height=”166″ iframe=”true” /]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under California law, school districts have to give charters access to the same kinds of spaces occupied by traditional public schools, when that space is available. The rooms at Westlake being offered to Downtown Charter Academy are not being used as classrooms, in part because enrollment has dropped in recent years from 747 in 2013 to 455 in 2015. But students and teachers say they are just as important: They include a restorative justice room, a computer lab, and a student game room, among other spaces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They keep presenting that Westlake enrollment has gone down and test scores are low. The fact is that our enrollment has gone down as the district has closed the schools that feed into our school,” said art teacher Juliana Houston.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Houston says district-run schools like Westlake have to compete with charter schools for students, but they often don’t have the same kind of marketing tools. If enrollment drops, they often have to share space, too. She says teachers were working hard to turn the school into an arts magnet to attract more students, but now the room they planned to convert into a performance space is slated to be handed over to the charter, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I understand that the charter needs space, too, and I’m not anti-charter. But it just feels really frustrating,” Houston said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parents like Joel Velasquez say the district is making matters even worse at Westlake Middle School, by announcing it’s going to remove its longtime principal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think you are either intentionally, maliciously or incompetent to realize that if you remove leadership at the same time as you move another school to the site, you’re going to destabilize that entire campus,” said Velasquez.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland Unified School District has been struggling with where to put charter schools, as existing charters expand and new ones are created. According to the school district, Downtown Charter Academy requested space at Westlake because the rent in their current building is going up. The director of Downtown Charter was not available for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fourteen charter schools requested space from the district this year, and the district is offering them classrooms at schools all over the city. The California Charter School Association just filed a lawsuit against the school district last week, alleging it’s not being fair to charters, offering them spaces split up across several campuses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s both discriminatory against charter school students and the choices their parents have made for them, and it’s unlawful,” said Ricardo Soto, an attorney for the charter association. “The end goal is … for them to make reasonable and equitable offers to charter schools. … It might require the district to reconfigure how they are accommodating their traditional public school students.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland Unified spokesman Isaac Kos-Read says the district has a very good relationship with local charters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is, of course, this irony in this,” said Kos-Read, “in that we are known as being collaborative with charter schools, and yet not collaborative enough in the association’s opinion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kos-Read says the district is trying to accommodate students at both charters and traditional public schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And are there going to be people unhappy on both sides of that equation all the time?” he asked. “Probably. You could argue that that’s a sign that we’re doing our job and that no one’s entirely happy with the final output.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Administrators meet Wednesday with parents, students and teachers at Westlake. The school board is set to decide on final offers to charter schools next week.\u003c/p>\n\n",

If enrollment drops, they often have to share space, too. She says teachers were working hard to turn the school into an arts magnet to attract more students, but now the room they planned to convert into a performance space is slated to be handed over to the charter, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I understand that the charter needs space, too, and I’m not anti-charter. But it just feels really frustrating,” Houston said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parents like Joel Velasquez say the district is making matters even worse at Westlake Middle School, by announcing it’s going to remove its longtime principal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think you are either intentionally, maliciously or incompetent to realize that if you remove leadership at the same time as you move another school to the site, you’re going to destabilize that entire campus,” said Velasquez.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland Unified School District has been struggling with where to put charter schools, as existing charters expand and new ones are created. According to the school district, Downtown Charter Academy requested space at Westlake because the rent in their current building is going up. The director of Downtown Charter was not available for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fourteen charter schools requested space from the district this year, and the district is offering them classrooms at schools all over the city. The California Charter School Association just filed a lawsuit against the school district last week, alleging it’s not being fair to charters, offering them spaces split up across several campuses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s both discriminatory against charter school students and the choices their parents have made for them, and it’s unlawful,” said Ricardo Soto, an attorney for the charter association. “The end goal is … for them to make reasonable and equitable offers to charter schools. … It might require the district to reconfigure how they are accommodating their traditional public school students.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland Unified spokesman Isaac Kos-Read says the district has a very good relationship with local charters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is, of course, this irony in this,” said Kos-Read, “in that we are known as being collaborative with charter schools, and yet not collaborative enough in the association’s opinion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kos-Read says the district is trying to accommodate students at both charters and traditional public schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And are there going to be people unhappy on both sides of that equation all the time?” he asked. “Probably. You could argue that that’s a sign that we’re doing our job and that no one’s entirely happy with the final output.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Administrators meet Wednesday with parents, students and teachers at Westlake. The school board is set to decide on final offers to charter schools next week.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>City College of San Francisco faculty say they could strike if the college doesn't offer them a fair contract.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The American Federation of Teachers Local 2121 announced Thursday that members had voted overwhelmingly to authorize a strike if an impasse in contract talks is not resolved. The faculty has been without a contract for nearly nine months and in contract negotiations for about a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Political science professor Tim Killikelly, who is also president of the local, says the CCSF administration should make raises for all faculty part of its strategy to keep the college open.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The proposals, at the end of a three-year contract, would have over half of our members still below a salary that they were making in 2007,\" Killikelly said. \"How they can they possibly think that that kind of proposal is reasonable and that we would agree to it?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says part-time faculty weren't offered any ongoing pay increases, something he says is untenable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The dispute comes against the backdrop of \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/01/10/timeline-of-ccsfs-accreditation-woes/\" target=\"_blank\">City College's long battle to maintain its accreditation\u003c/a> as an institution of higher learning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Citing ongoing concerns over CCSF's fiscal accountability, the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges put the college on notice in 2012 that it could lose its standing, then moved to strip its certification in 2013. That decision was put on hold at the order of a San Francisco judge, and the commission subsequently gave CCSF until later this year to address the issues that had been identified. A final decision on accreditation could come early next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's about the same time CCSF will see budget cuts because of declines in enrollment and the loss of \u003ca href=\"http://sd11.senate.ca.gov/news/2014-06-24-senator-leno-mayor-ed-lee-and-community-college-leaders-applaud-critical-budget-fund\" target=\"_blank\">stabilization funding\u003c/a> from the state, Board of Trustees president Rafael Mandelman noted Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although student numbers have held steady over the past year, Mandelman said, the school lost about 30 percent of its students over the past five years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, teacher pay has been cut. Mandelman conceded the administration's last contract proposal would pay some teachers 3.7 percent less than they earned in 2007.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The college has a lot of challenges,\" Mandelman said, adding that while he understands the faculty's frustration, there's only so much the administration can do, given the decline in funding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm optimistic that we can offer them a little hope, but it's looking pretty grim,\" Mandelman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Union leader Killikelly says keeping quality teachers happy will help make the school more viable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It needs a rethinking by the board of how they're going to move forward, and that includes thinking about how they're going to compensate the people who work there to make sure they can afford to really live here in the city,\" Killikelly said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, City College administration said it was disappointed by the strike authorization. A walkout \"will have a severe impact on our students by disrupting class schedules, graduation, and possibly their ability to transfer to four-year institutions,\" the statement said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

That decision was put on hold at the order of a San Francisco judge, and the commission subsequently gave CCSF until later this year to address the issues that had been identified. A final decision on accreditation could come early next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's about the same time CCSF will see budget cuts because of declines in enrollment and the loss of \u003ca href=\"http://sd11.senate.ca.gov/news/2014-06-24-senator-leno-mayor-ed-lee-and-community-college-leaders-applaud-critical-budget-fund\" target=\"_blank\">stabilization funding\u003c/a> from the state, Board of Trustees president Rafael Mandelman noted Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although student numbers have held steady over the past year, Mandelman said, the school lost about 30 percent of its students over the past five years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, teacher pay has been cut. Mandelman conceded the administration's last contract proposal would pay some teachers 3.7 percent less than they earned in 2007.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The college has a lot of challenges,\" Mandelman said, adding that while he understands the faculty's frustration, there's only so much the administration can do, given the decline in funding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm optimistic that we can offer them a little hope, but it's looking pretty grim,\" Mandelman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Union leader Killikelly says keeping quality teachers happy will help make the school more viable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It needs a rethinking by the board of how they're going to move forward, and that includes thinking about how they're going to compensate the people who work there to make sure they can afford to really live here in the city,\" Killikelly said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, City College administration said it was disappointed by the strike authorization.

"content": "\u003cp>San Francisco State University's College of Ethnic Studies might not have enough money to pay all of its staff come July 1. The College of Ethnic Studies says it's operating with close to a $400,000 deficit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The college is straining to cover the salary of lecturers, tenured faculty, the graduate program and other costs. It has been struggling since the California State University system faced severe budget cuts in its 2009-2010 academic year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>American Indian Studies Department Chair Andrew Jolivette says around 50 percent of the course work that the college provides, some of which are required courses for SFSU students, may not be available in the fall. The graduate program is also at risk of closing, and the lecturers that make up 40 percent of the college's staff may lose their jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[The administration] expects us to be fundraising,\" Jolivette said. \"That's for scholarships, not an academic program.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SFSU spokesman Jonathan Morales said the college received $5 million for the 2015-16 year. However, Ethnic Studies said it received only a little over $3.6 million. Morales said the university has been supplementing the college's overspending with a reserve fund that is now depleted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SFSU said it is not technically implementing a budget cut and that the university has not asked a college to take a cut since the 2009-2010 academic year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2009, the university made sweeping cuts to colleges across disciplines. It asked each college to cut 10 percent of its budget. The College of Ethnic Studies staff say they took a higher cut that was disproportionate to the rest of the campus. It took an almost 16 percent permanent cut to its budget from more than $4 million to $3.4 million, which is how the deficit started. The college says it's had to overspend to pay for tenured professors and maintain operational costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Details of Possible Closures\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We would have to close the student resource center, the advising center and the Cesar Chavez Institute,\" said Amy Sueyoshi, associate dean at the college. \"We serve the students who are working 20 hours or more a week.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sueyoshi said there used to be more than 60 full-time faculty, and now there are 37. She added that if teachers retire, the college would not be able to replace them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an email sent to faculty, staff and students, SFSU President Leslie Wong said: \"While our 2016-17 budget for the University has not been finalized, we expect this year’s allocation to closely resemble last year’s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What has changed is how we respond to programs, including colleges, that run annual deficits, as has been the case for Ethnic Studies in recent years. When budget gaps have been discovered in other programs, a strategy was developed that allowed the program to continue while arranging to pay back its debt to the University within a set time frame. In the case of the College of Ethnic Studies, no reimbursement plan has been requested. But the college has been asked to adapt to new budgetary discipline moving forward.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hundreds are expected to show up at a meeting Thursday with Wong and Ethnic Studies faculty, students and supporters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jolivette said that the administration does not understand the educational service the college provides.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\"At the \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">meeting, the fact that [Provost Dr. Sue Rosser] called this a bailout,\" Jolivette said. \"I think it was dismissive, and she kind of \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">shrugged her shoulders when she called it a bailout.\"\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>First of its Kind\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10876952\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-10876952 size-medium\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/IMG_0999-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"A plaque in the College of Ethnic Studies Building reads: "'Relevant education now' 1968, in appreciation for the contributions made by the Black Student Union/Third World Liberation Front students, staff, faculty, community members, including the birth of ethnic studies at SF State."\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/IMG_0999-800x450.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/IMG_0999-400x225.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/IMG_0999.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/IMG_0999-1180x664.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/IMG_0999-960x540.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A plaque inside the College of Ethnic Studies Building in memory of the 1968 strike that led to the founding of the college. \u003ccite>(Natalie Yemenidjian/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>SFSU's College of Ethnic Studies was the first ethnic studies program in the country when it was created \u003ca href=\"https://diva.sfsu.edu/collections/sfbatv/2570\">in the wake of a campus strike\u003c/a> by the Black Student Union and Third World Liberation Front strike from November 1968 to March 1969.

The College of Ethnic Studies says it's operating with close to a $400,000 deficit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The college is straining to cover the salary of lecturers, tenured faculty, the graduate program and other costs. It has been struggling since the California State University system faced severe budget cuts in its 2009-2010 academic year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>American Indian Studies Department Chair Andrew Jolivette says around 50 percent of the course work that the college provides, some of which are required courses for SFSU students, may not be available in the fall. The graduate program is also at risk of closing, and the lecturers that make up 40 percent of the college's staff may lose their jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[The administration] expects us to be fundraising,\" Jolivette said. \"That's for scholarships, not an academic program.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SFSU spokesman Jonathan Morales said the college received $5 million for the 2015-16 year. However, Ethnic Studies said it received only a little over $3.6 million. Morales said the university has been supplementing the college's overspending with a reserve fund that is now depleted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It asked each college to cut 10 percent of its budget. The College of Ethnic Studies staff say they took a higher cut that was disproportionate to the rest of the campus. It took an almost 16 percent permanent cut to its budget from more than $4 million to $3.4 million, which is how the deficit started. The college says it's had to overspend to pay for tenured professors and maintain operational costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Details of Possible Closures\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We would have to close the student resource center, the advising center and the Cesar Chavez Institute,\" said Amy Sueyoshi, associate dean at the college. \"We serve the students who are working 20 hours or more a week.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sueyoshi said there used to be more than 60 full-time faculty, and now there are 37. She added that if teachers retire, the college would not be able to replace them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an email sent to faculty, staff and students, SFSU President Leslie Wong said: \"While our 2016-17 budget for the University has not been finalized, we expect this year’s allocation to closely resemble last year’s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What has changed is how we respond to programs, including colleges, that run annual deficits, as has been the case for Ethnic Studies in recent years. When budget gaps have been discovered in other programs, a strategy was developed that allowed the program to continue while arranging to pay back its debt to the University within a set time frame. In the case of the College of Ethnic Studies, no reimbursement plan has been requested. But the college has been asked to adapt to new budgetary discipline moving forward.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hundreds are expected to show up at a meeting Thursday with Wong and Ethnic Studies faculty, students and supporters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jolivette said that the administration does not understand the educational service the college provides.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\"At the \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">meeting, the fact that [Provost Dr. Sue Rosser] called this a bailout,\" Jolivette said. \"I think it was dismissive, and she kind of \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">shrugged her shoulders when she called it a bailout.\"\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>First of its Kind\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10876952\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-10876952 size-medium\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/IMG_0999-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"A plaque in the College of Ethnic Studies Building reads: "'Relevant education now' 1968, in appreciation for the contributions made by the Black Student Union/Third World Liberation Front students, staff, faculty, community members, including the birth of ethnic studies at SF State."\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/IMG_0999-800x450.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/IMG_0999-400x225.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/IMG_0999.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/IMG_0999-1180x664.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/IMG_0999-960x540.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A plaque inside the College of Ethnic Studies Building in memory of the 1968 strike that led to the founding of the college. \u003ccite>(Natalie Yemenidjian/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>SFSU's College of Ethnic Studies was the first ethnic studies program in the country when it was created \u003ca href=\"https://diva.sfsu.edu/collections/sfbatv/2570\">in the wake of a campus strike\u003c/a> by the Black Student Union and Third World Liberation Front strike from November 1968 to March 1969.

It was 14 years after \u003cem>Brown v. Board of Education\u003c/em>, the Supreme Court ruling that decreed segregation illegal in public schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyschools.net/about-the-district/about/\">Berkeley Unified School District \u003c/a>takes pride in the diversity of Berkeley schools. However, school administrators, teachers, students and parents all acknowledge that the Berkeley High campus is segregated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One Berkeley parent, who wanted to remain anonymous, says that when she attended the high school in the mid-’70s, the school was divided along racial lines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As a white teenager at Berkeley High, I really wanted to be friends with the black kids. I wanted to.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Claire Barnes, who is also a Berkeley High alum, remembers a racial climate that was a little bit different when she attended Berkeley High in the late ’70s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Some kids hung out in one area, some kids hung out in another area. There were certain spots that were turfs, but people intermingled.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Claire Barnes, who sometimes volunteers at the school, says she doesn’t see that as much in the halls these days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not seeing different races intermingling at the junior or senior level. That’s usually when it happens.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In November, the race issue \u003ca href=\"//ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/12/15/berkeley-high-students-get-real-about-race-on-campus%E2%80%9D\">came to a head\u003c/a> after racist threats were found on a library computer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A Wake-Up Call\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we learned was that, in some ways, we’re not any better than anyone else,” says Mark Coplan, spokesman for the Berkeley Unified School District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve always thought and would like to believe that our community is different, but the fact is institutional racism and individual racism surfaces and has to be addressed,” Coplan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Dec. 9, 2015, the school dedicated an entire day to talking about racism and racial bias in all classes. But even by the next day, students like Sean Hoffman wanted more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hoffman, who spoke to KQED after an orchestra concert, says his teachers didn’t keep the conversation about racism and racial bias going on the day after Dec. 9.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was disappointed, I feel like it was something we should continue talking about and continue pressing as an issue,” says Hoffman, who is a sophomore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over two months later, students say these issues still aren’t being fully addressed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10862349\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 263px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10862349\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/RS18395_IMG_4766-sfi-400x300.jpg\" alt='L to R: Paige Jones, Jordan Corbino and Zamaria Odom are seniors at Berkeley High. \"Its our job to come back and make a difference in the community,\" says Odom.' width=\"263\" height=\"197\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/RS18395_IMG_4766-sfi-400x300.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/RS18395_IMG_4766-sfi.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 263px) 100vw, 263px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">L to R: Paige Jones, Jordan Corbino and Zamaria Odom are seniors at Berkeley High. ‘It’s our job to come back and make a difference in the community,’ says Odom. \u003ccite>(Adizah Eghan/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“We kind of stayed on it for a couple of days. We talked about it and then we watched movies about it. But it was blown out of proportion because a couple weeks later we [went] on to the next thing,” says Jordan Corbino one day recently after school. Corbino, who is a senior, sits next to his friend Zamaria Odom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the teachers did a pretty good job of focusing on the issue but after a week or so, the issue was dead, and it didn’t really get handled again. It didn’t really get talked about. It just went back to normal,” Odom says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Friends Sebastien Briddoneau and Elijah Liedeker also really want these conversations to continue in class.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People seemed to have already forgotten about it. Not everyone, but a lot of people, the majority of the Berkeley High population,” Liedeker says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Why Aren’t These Conversations About Race Happening?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Berkeley High parent and PTA member Christine Staples says teachers are under a huge amount of pressure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Teachers don’t feel equipped to facilitate those kind of conversations. Those are big, far-reaching, long conversations,” she says. “They need help. They need training. I mean, should some random English teacher just start trying to facilitate this conversation?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of the teachers who spoke to KQED agreed, but they didn’t want to go on the record for fear of being critical of the administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is support for teachers who might not feel like they have the background, or they have the information themselves. It’s a touchy situation,” says a Berkeley High teacher who would like to remain anonymous. “I’m not sure it’s a class that’s taught. It’s a life experience, so it’s a little fake sometimes to try and teach something without experiencing it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are teachers at Berkeley High who are incredibly equipped to talk about race. But that number is small, Coplan says. The district’s goal is to get all teachers on a similar level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are individuals who have their own beliefs, their own feelings, and in some cases it’s as simple as they are uncomfortable with the subject because they don’t understand it,” Coplan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Teacher and professional development coordinator Tamara Friedman says the high school wants to expand on a training session it did last fall on “culturally responsive teaching,” which embeds instruction around racism and anti-racism throughout a teacher’s content and curriculum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Black Student Union Still Working on Its List of Demands\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Black Student Union (BSU) is continuing to push its \u003ca href=\"//afrikanblackcoalition.org/2015/12/21/after-threats-of-a-lynching-berkeley-highs-black-student-union-releases-demands/%E2%80%9D\">list of demands \u003c/a> before the Berkeley school board and Berkeley High administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a school board meeting on Jan. 13, BSU co-president Alecia Harger told the board that things have to move more quickly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The BSU wants to get these demands done soon, “so that the people who are freshman now don’t have to go through their entire four years as black students unsupported and feeling unloved and unwanted at Berkeley High,” Harger says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Superintendent Donald Evans says this is a serious priority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I faced what those kids were talking about when I was in high school and when I was in college. This is personal for me,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Evans and Pasarow are working together to implement \u003ca href=\"//www.berkeleyschools.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/V6FinalBUSDSupsResponse.pdf?5759fb&5759fb%E2%80%9D\">immediate to long-term \u003c/a>steps to address the demands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel a lot of healthy pressure as a leader of this school to have this not be a one-off response. We need to have a sustained response,” Pasarow says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Zamaria Odom says he’s not expecting much before he graduates this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Honestly, I don’t think anything is going to change, even when we leave and the next class leaves, because people don’t like to be put out there to make a difference,” Odom says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, Odom believes change will also take former students like him coming back to school to hold the administration accountable.\u003c/p>\n\n",

It was 14 years after \u003cem>Brown v. Board of Education\u003c/em>, the Supreme Court ruling that decreed segregation illegal in public schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyschools.net/about-the-district/about/\">Berkeley Unified School District \u003c/a>takes pride in the diversity of Berkeley schools. However, school administrators, teachers, students and parents all acknowledge that the Berkeley High campus is segregated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One Berkeley parent, who wanted to remain anonymous, says that when she attended the high school in the mid-’70s, the school was divided along racial lines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As a white teenager at Berkeley High, I really wanted to be friends with the black kids. I wanted to.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Claire Barnes, who is also a Berkeley High alum, remembers a racial climate that was a little bit different when she attended Berkeley High in the late ’70s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Some kids hung out in one area, some kids hung out in another area. There were certain spots that were turfs, but people intermingled.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Claire Barnes, who sometimes volunteers at the school, says she doesn’t see that as much in the halls these days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not seeing different races intermingling at the junior or senior level. That’s usually when it happens.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In November, the race issue \u003ca href=\"//ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/12/15/berkeley-high-students-get-real-about-race-on-campus%E2%80%9D\">came to a head\u003c/a> after racist threats were found on a library computer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A Wake-Up Call\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we learned was that, in some ways, we’re not any better than anyone else,” says Mark Coplan, spokesman for the Berkeley Unified School District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve always thought and would like to believe that our community is different, but the fact is institutional racism and individual racism surfaces and has to be addressed,” Coplan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Dec. 9, 2015, the school dedicated an entire day to talking about racism and racial bias in all classes. But even by the next day, students like Sean Hoffman wanted more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hoffman, who spoke to KQED after an orchestra concert, says his teachers didn’t keep the conversation about racism and racial bias going on the day after Dec. 9.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was disappointed, I feel like it was something we should continue talking about and continue pressing as an issue,” says Hoffman, who is a sophomore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over two months later, students say these issues still aren’t being fully addressed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10862349\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 263px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10862349\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/RS18395_IMG_4766-sfi-400x300.jpg\" alt='L to R: Paige Jones, Jordan Corbino and Zamaria Odom are seniors at Berkeley High. \"Its our job to come back and make a difference in the community,\" says Odom.' width=\"263\" height=\"197\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/RS18395_IMG_4766-sfi-400x300.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/02/RS18395_IMG_4766-sfi.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 263px) 100vw, 263px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">L to R: Paige Jones, Jordan Corbino and Zamaria Odom are seniors at Berkeley High. ‘It’s our job to come back and make a difference in the community,’ says Odom. \u003ccite>(Adizah Eghan/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“We kind of stayed on it for a couple of days. We talked about it and then we watched movies about it. But it was blown out of proportion because a couple weeks later we [went] on to the next thing,” says Jordan Corbino one day recently after school. Corbino, who is a senior, sits next to his friend Zamaria Odom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the teachers did a pretty good job of focusing on the issue but after a week or so, the issue was dead, and it didn’t really get handled again. It didn’t really get talked about. It just went back to normal,” Odom says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Friends Sebastien Briddoneau and Elijah Liedeker also really want these conversations to continue in class.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People seemed to have already forgotten about it. Not everyone, but a lot of people, the majority of the Berkeley High population,” Liedeker says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Why Aren’t These Conversations About Race Happening?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Berkeley High parent and PTA member Christine Staples says teachers are under a huge amount of pressure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Teachers don’t feel equipped to facilitate those kind of conversations. Those are big, far-reaching, long conversations,” she says. “They need help. They need training. I mean, should some random English teacher just start trying to facilitate this conversation?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of the teachers who spoke to KQED agreed, but they didn’t want to go on the record for fear of being critical of the administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is support for teachers who might not feel like they have the background, or they have the information themselves. It’s a touchy situation,” says a Berkeley High teacher who would like to remain anonymous. “I’m not sure it’s a class that’s taught. It’s a life experience, so it’s a little fake sometimes to try and teach something without experiencing it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are teachers at Berkeley High who are incredibly equipped to talk about race. But that number is small, Coplan says. The district’s goal is to get all teachers on a similar level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are individuals who have their own beliefs, their own feelings, and in some cases it’s as simple as they are uncomfortable with the subject because they don’t understand it,” Coplan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Teacher and professional development coordinator Tamara Friedman says the high school wants to expand on a training session it did last fall on “culturally responsive teaching,” which embeds instruction around racism and anti-racism throughout a teacher’s content and curriculum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Black Student Union Still Working on Its List of Demands\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Black Student Union (BSU) is continuing to push its \u003ca href=\"//afrikanblackcoalition.org/2015/12/21/after-threats-of-a-lynching-berkeley-highs-black-student-union-releases-demands/%E2%80%9D\">list of demands \u003c/a> before the Berkeley school board and Berkeley High administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a school board meeting on Jan. 13, BSU co-president Alecia Harger told the board that things have to move more quickly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The BSU wants to get these demands done soon, “so that the people who are freshman now don’t have to go through their entire four years as black students unsupported and feeling unloved and unwanted at Berkeley High,” Harger says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Superintendent Donald Evans says this is a serious priority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I faced what those kids were talking about when I was in high school and when I was in college. This is personal for me,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Evans and Pasarow are working together to implement \u003ca href=\"//www.berkeleyschools.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/V6FinalBUSDSupsResponse.pdf?5759fb&5759fb%E2%80%9D\">immediate to long-term \u003c/a>steps to address the demands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel a lot of healthy pressure as a leader of this school to have this not be a one-off response.
