His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

"content": "\u003cp>Catherine Stone pulled into a packed parking lot at Middletown High School on the hot and excessively windy Saturday of September 12, 2015. A small but fast-growing fire had erupted hours earlier, a dozen miles away on Cobb Mountain. First responders needed an evacuation center and wanted to use Middletown High.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just two months on the job in the small Northern California district between Clearlake and Calistoga, the new superintendent of Middletown Unified struggled against gusting wind to open the door of her office. Inside at her window, Stone called the Red Cross.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her eyes widened. In the 10 minutes it had taken to drive to the school, flames had raced down the mountain and across the ridge, so fast and so close that they now loomed over the field where the girls’ soccer team held a narrow lead, fans nervously eyeing the horizon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Related\" postID=news_11774750]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know what, we’re not going to be an evacuation center,” Stone told the Red Cross official before hanging up abruptly. “The fire is here.” She turned on her heel and ran toward the soccer crowd, shouting, “Get out! Get out!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That terrifying weekend made history as the Valley Fire — \u003ca href=\"https://www.fire.ca.gov/media/5511/top20_destruction.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">California’s fifth-most destructive,\u003c/a> at last count — killed four people and ravenously charred through 76,000 acres in Lake, Napa and Sonoma counties, including the homes of hundreds of Middletown Unified students and teachers. It also marked the statistical start of a new and exponentially challenging moment for the state’s public schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For generations, fire-prone communities have lived with, worked through and even managed to go to school around the wildfires that come with California’s natural ecosystem. But \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/californias-worsening-wildfires-explained/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recent years have been different\u003c/a>, as climate change has turned brushfires into megafires and megafires into towering infernos, threatening communities — and core institutions, such as schools — in ways that are more traumatic and less intermittent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since late 2015, wildfires have temporarily shut down thousands of schools statewide, disrupting public education more often, more widely and for longer periods than in years past, according to a CalMatters analysis of \u003ca href=\"https://disasterdays.calmatters.org/california-school-closures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">nearly two decades of reported school closures.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://e.infogram.com/6d04df8b-f9fa-44f0-9266-d488a89cde7b?src=embed\" title=\"DISASTER DAYS - Schools / Students Impacted by Year\" width=\"800\" height=\"836\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none;\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reports filed with the state since the 2002-03 school year, which is as far back as those records have been kept at the California Department of Education, show that, over the past 17 years, wildfires accounted for more than 60% of the school days lost to closures. About half of those closure days have occurred since 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last school year alone, wildfires forced more than 1,900 schools to cancel days — sometimes weeks — of classes, interrupting the education of more than 1.1 million students, or about 1 in 6 California schoolchildren. Some schools have closed for wildfire as many as five times in the last four years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the disruptions have become longer. Though massive fires, mostly in San Diego County, caused school closures to spike in 2003 and 2007 in numbers similar to recent school years, no public school site in California had reported losing 15 instructional days or more due to wildfire — equivalent to three weeks — before 2015. Since then, more than 70 schools have reported shutdowns of that duration, and many more have shut down for two to three weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Paradise Unified School District, for instance, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sacbee.com/news/local/education/article222505275.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">canceled classes for nearly a month\u003c/a> after last year’s Camp Fire devastated its Butte County community, damaging or destroying eight of the nine school sites. By the time\u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/2019/students-return-to-dramatically-different-paradise/616330\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> classes resumed\u003c/a> on Aug. 15, \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2019-08-15/bittersweet-back-to-school-in-paradise-reeling-from-camp-fire\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">more than half \u003c/a>of the district’s 3,400 students had moved to new schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Paradise is just the best known example. Mary Sakuma, superintendent of the Butte County Office of Education estimated that more than 5,300 students and 500 staff from multiple school districts in the county lost their homes in the Camp Fire — and many more are still struggling, long after the resumption of classes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Sonoma County, a 2018-19 county education office survey found that about 3,000 students and more than 400 educators were still showing signs of increased anxiety, stress, depression, behavioral problems or decreased academic performance resulting from the 2017 Tubbs Fire in wine country. Across the county’s schools, there had been an increase in suicide attempts and referrals for mental health over the past two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Educators say the situation, which so far has largely been dealt with county-by-county, is crying out for comprehensive solutions, from statewide requirements that schools make up at least some of the days lost to closures to formal, ongoing budget protection for fire-prone districts. And, they say, more must be done to address ongoing trauma.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are now seeing these impacts of not just children,” Sakuma said, “but their entire families in crisis really struggling with the aftermath of all of this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>‘Everyone was traumatized’\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Three years and two months before California’s deadliest wildfire roiled Butte County schools, Middletown got a preview of the era to come.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Mary Sakuma, superintendent of the Butte County Office of Education\"]‘We are now seeing these impacts of not just children, but their entire families in crisis really struggling with the aftermath of all of this.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The start of the school year had already been delayed by the Jerusalem Fire, which had forced schools in Middletown Unified, about two and a half hours southwest of Paradise, to cancel the first week of classes. Now the Valley Fire had \u003ca href=\"https://www.pressdemocrat.com/news/4494017-181/middletown-at-a-crossroads-as?artslide=4&sba=AAS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">made that blaze look minor. \u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Middletown Unified closed for another two weeks — 10 school days that state law does not require schools to make up. It was mid-October before the flames were fully contained.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stone said she felt as if the earth beneath her schools had tilted on its axis. \u003ca href=\"https://www.pressdemocrat.com/news/4517518-181/in-wake-of-valley-fire?sba=AAS&artslide=15\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">More than 200 students and district employees\u003c/a> in the community of 1,300 had lost their homes, scattering to communities across Lake and Napa counties. The fire’s rapid spread caught many off-guard, and some students and families had driven through flames to evacuate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of the district’s school sites had extensive damage. So much smoke, soot and ash had infiltrated Cobb Mountain Elementary that it would be uninhabitable for much of the next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thousands of dollars’ worth of food rotted in the district’s freezers, one of which broke down a year later because smoke crept inside its vents and festered. The fire took the fleet of maintenance vehicles and equipment. Days after schools reopened, sewage spilled out of several restrooms — the result of fire damage to the schools’ water and septic systems — and portable toilets had to be brought in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Instead of going along in our school year and thinking about reading scores and athletics and all the usual kinds of things that we deal with on a day-to-day basis, we were dealing with a very primal need for support because of the trauma,” Stone said. “And everyone was traumatized.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaleigh Alves, a soccer forward who had watched from the field that day as the fire rose up over the ridge, recalled that the grieving began almost before her then-teenaged mind could grasp what had happened: “My teammates found out on the field after the whistle was blown that their house had burned down.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then she learned that her house, too, was gone. For two days, she said, her white-and-purple soccer uniform was her only clothing. She and her two sisters had to share a room at their grandmother’s house for the rest of the school year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/htnVDjgZA4o\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overwhelmed school officials, she said, lacked the bandwidth to help much with college guidance, and cancelled senior year rituals that might have been normalizing out of fear of retriggering trauma.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Long after graduation, she said, anxiety lingered. When the Tubbs Fire swept Sonoma County two years later, she was a student at Santa Rosa Junior College and, again, evacuated. Feeling “super-paranoid,” she said, she frantically filled her car with belongings, fearing she might lose everything again.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>‘A direct impact of climate change’\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>It’s not unusual for schools to close for wildfire in California, but never has the impact from fires been so sustained and intense as in the last several years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2015-16 — the year of the Valley Fire — nearly 100 schools serving a combined 23,000-plus students closed due to wildfires, including a rural Fresno County charter school that lost 21 instructional days to the Rough Fire. The following fall, schools in Lake County closed again for a week during the Clayton Fire, which incinerated parts of Lower Lake about a half-hour north of Middletown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In August 2016, more major fires — including Cedar in Tulare County, Blue Cut and Pilot in sprawling San Bernardino County and the Gap Fire in Klamath National Forest — kept more than 91,000 kids home from school, with some closures lasting 12 school days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2017, school closures resulting from massive fires burning across the state, particularly in late fall, affected more than 865,000 students. That following March, closures due to flooding and mudslides resulting from the Thomas Fire in Ventura County affected 19,000 kids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The number of students affected by emergency closures tallied more than 1 million in the year of the Camp Fire, as thick, hazardous smoke spread across Northern California counties and polluted dense urban areas with multiple large school systems. Fires in Shasta, Riverside and Lake counties prompted weeklong closures that affected some 80,000 kids in the first few weeks of the 2018-19 term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, school districts that close for emergencies are able to request waivers from the state that essentially protect schools from taking a financial hit in their attendance-based funding for having to temporarily shutter. Schools are incentivized to report closures to the state, but not required.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And schools that receive state-approved attendance waivers are not required to make up those days of lost instruction. Nor are schools required to budget extra days in their academic calendars in case of emergencies. In an era of increasingly severe and lengthy closures, perhaps that should change, some educators say.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though academic research — \u003ca href=\"https://www.nber.org/papers/w20221\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">much of it focused on snow days \u003c/a>— indicates that students can lose a day or two of instruction without much damage to test scores, studies show \u003ca href=\"https://www.educationnext.org/defense-snow-days/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">longer absences do make a difference\u003c/a>, especially for disadvantaged students. In districts hardest hit by recent wildfires, CalMatters found, attendance often dropped precipitously even without an official school closure, or — if a school did close — morphed into high rates of chronic absenteeism after schools reopened.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we’re supposed to teach 180 days and we keep erasing five or six days out of every school calendar, we’re not giving our students a competitive educational advantage that they deserve,” said Steve Herrington, superintendent of the Sonoma County Office of Education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That to me is a direct impact of climate change issues that we’re dealing with.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>‘A gift that keeps on giving’\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>For a while, the Middletown schools were overcome with sympathy and support. The Oakland Raiders came and replaced the damaged football equipment. A team of San Francisco mental health professionals embedded themselves for two weeks to help with trauma counseling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as one blockbuster California fire gave way to the next, and the community became yesterday’s news, that support quietly receded. In 2015, the state had yet to forcefully react to schools affected by fires the way it would just two years later, after California’s wine country went up in flames.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since then, the state has used emergency declarations and targeted legislation to help insulate individual districts severely impacted by wildfire from immediate budget cuts as a result of lost enrollment. In Paradise, for instance, \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200AB72\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">legislation\u003c/a> to protect funding for fire-ravaged schools \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/2019/students-return-to-dramatically-different-paradise/616330\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">is preventing layoffs and preserving \u003c/a>as much as 60% of the district budget through the 2020-21 school year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Middletown’s fires largely predated those kinds of supports, and as families relocated, enrollment sank and its budget imploded. The year after the Valley Fire, the district put off buying new textbooks to fund a third school psychologist, which it couldn’t afford, long-term. By last year, the district of 1,500 students had only one mental health counselor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is wrong,” \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/08/Newsom-press-release.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Stone wrote to Gov. Gavin Newsom\u003c/a> in an unsuccessful March plea to broaden fire relief and extend more of it to districts still recovering from past fires. “We can’t afford to hire a lobbyist to get post-wildfire assistance, much less the extra teachers we need in order to provide things like AP classes and electives or the mental health professionals to support our traumatized students.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Substance abuse has ticked up among older students, she said, and fear of the losses the next wildfire might bring has become a constant. When she visited elementary classrooms last year, she noticed some kids were overstuffing their cubbies, “like little hoarders.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11775781\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1024px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/09/081519_Middletown_AW_sized_01.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11775781\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/09/081519_Middletown_AW_sized_01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"699\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/09/081519_Middletown_AW_sized_01.jpg 1024w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/09/081519_Middletown_AW_sized_01-160x109.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/09/081519_Middletown_AW_sized_01-800x546.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/09/081519_Middletown_AW_sized_01-1020x696.jpg 1020w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Middletown Unified School District Superintendent Catherine Stone in her office on the first day of school in Middletown on August 15, 2019. \u003ccite>(Anne Wernikoff/CalMatters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“It’s a gift that keeps on giving, if you will,” she said, echoing educators throughout the increasingly broad swath of California now prone to wildfire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the Valley Fire, every subsequent school year has brought fires that either have prompted evacuations, required use of the high school as an evacuation center or caused more school closures altogether.

But math proficiency measured by the state’s standardized exams plummeted 7 percentage points in a testing cycle in which the state’s schools experienced overall gains. The school year after the fire, the proportion of graduating seniors in the district deemed “college and career ready” by the state dropped from about 50% to 27.5%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last four school years, Middletown Unified schools have closed for 25 days because of fires, the equivalent of five weeks of instruction.

It also marked the statistical start of a new and exponentially challenging moment for the state’s public schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For generations, fire-prone communities have lived with, worked through and even managed to go to school around the wildfires that come with California’s natural ecosystem. But \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/californias-worsening-wildfires-explained/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recent years have been different\u003c/a>, as climate change has turned brushfires into megafires and megafires into towering infernos, threatening communities — and core institutions, such as schools — in ways that are more traumatic and less intermittent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since late 2015, wildfires have temporarily shut down thousands of schools statewide, disrupting public education more often, more widely and for longer periods than in years past, according to a CalMatters analysis of \u003ca href=\"https://disasterdays.calmatters.org/california-school-closures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">nearly two decades of reported school closures.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://e.infogram.com/6d04df8b-f9fa-44f0-9266-d488a89cde7b?src=embed\" title=\"DISASTER DAYS - Schools / Students Impacted by Year\" width=\"800\" height=\"836\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none;\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reports filed with the state since the 2002-03 school year, which is as far back as those records have been kept at the California Department of Education, show that, over the past 17 years, wildfires accounted for more than 60% of the school days lost to closures. About half of those closure days have occurred since 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last school year alone, wildfires forced more than 1,900 schools to cancel days — sometimes weeks — of classes, interrupting the education of more than 1.1 million students, or about 1 in 6 California schoolchildren. Some schools have closed for wildfire as many as five times in the last four years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the disruptions have become longer. Though massive fires, mostly in San Diego County, caused school closures to spike in 2003 and 2007 in numbers similar to recent school years, no public school site in California had reported losing 15 instructional days or more due to wildfire — equivalent to three weeks — before 2015. Since then, more than 70 schools have reported shutdowns of that duration, and many more have shut down for two to three weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Paradise Unified School District, for instance, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sacbee.com/news/local/education/article222505275.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">canceled classes for nearly a month\u003c/a> after last year’s Camp Fire devastated its Butte County community, damaging or destroying eight of the nine school sites. By the time\u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/2019/students-return-to-dramatically-different-paradise/616330\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> classes resumed\u003c/a> on Aug. 15, \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2019-08-15/bittersweet-back-to-school-in-paradise-reeling-from-camp-fire\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">more than half \u003c/a>of the district’s 3,400 students had moved to new schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Paradise is just the best known example. Mary Sakuma, superintendent of the Butte County Office of Education estimated that more than 5,300 students and 500 staff from multiple school districts in the county lost their homes in the Camp Fire — and many more are still struggling, long after the resumption of classes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Sonoma County, a 2018-19 county education office survey found that about 3,000 students and more than 400 educators were still showing signs of increased anxiety, stress, depression, behavioral problems or decreased academic performance resulting from the 2017 Tubbs Fire in wine country. Across the county’s schools, there had been an increase in suicide attempts and referrals for mental health over the past two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Educators say the situation, which so far has largely been dealt with county-by-county, is crying out for comprehensive solutions, from statewide requirements that schools make up at least some of the days lost to closures to formal, ongoing budget protection for fire-prone districts. And, they say, more must be done to address ongoing trauma.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are now seeing these impacts of not just children,” Sakuma said, “but their entire families in crisis really struggling with the aftermath of all of this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>‘Everyone was traumatized’\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Three years and two months before California’s deadliest wildfire roiled Butte County schools, Middletown got a preview of the era to come.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Now the Valley Fire had \u003ca href=\"https://www.pressdemocrat.com/news/4494017-181/middletown-at-a-crossroads-as?artslide=4&sba=AAS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">made that blaze look minor. \u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Middletown Unified closed for another two weeks — 10 school days that state law does not require schools to make up. It was mid-October before the flames were fully contained.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stone said she felt as if the earth beneath her schools had tilted on its axis. \u003ca href=\"https://www.pressdemocrat.com/news/4517518-181/in-wake-of-valley-fire?sba=AAS&artslide=15\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">More than 200 students and district employees\u003c/a> in the community of 1,300 had lost their homes, scattering to communities across Lake and Napa counties. The fire’s rapid spread caught many off-guard, and some students and families had driven through flames to evacuate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of the district’s school sites had extensive damage. So much smoke, soot and ash had infiltrated Cobb Mountain Elementary that it would be uninhabitable for much of the next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thousands of dollars’ worth of food rotted in the district’s freezers, one of which broke down a year later because smoke crept inside its vents and festered. The fire took the fleet of maintenance vehicles and equipment. Days after schools reopened, sewage spilled out of several restrooms — the result of fire damage to the schools’ water and septic systems — and portable toilets had to be brought in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Instead of going along in our school year and thinking about reading scores and athletics and all the usual kinds of things that we deal with on a day-to-day basis, we were dealing with a very primal need for support because of the trauma,” Stone said. “And everyone was traumatized.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaleigh Alves, a soccer forward who had watched from the field that day as the fire rose up over the ridge, recalled that the grieving began almost before her then-teenaged mind could grasp what had happened: “My teammates found out on the field after the whistle was blown that their house had burned down.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then she learned that her house, too, was gone. For two days, she said, her white-and-purple soccer uniform was her only clothing. She and her two sisters had to share a room at their grandmother’s house for the rest of the school year.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/htnVDjgZA4o'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/htnVDjgZA4o'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Overwhelmed school officials, she said, lacked the bandwidth to help much with college guidance, and cancelled senior year rituals that might have been normalizing out of fear of retriggering trauma.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Long after graduation, she said, anxiety lingered. When the Tubbs Fire swept Sonoma County two years later, she was a student at Santa Rosa Junior College and, again, evacuated. Feeling “super-paranoid,” she said, she frantically filled her car with belongings, fearing she might lose everything again.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>‘A direct impact of climate change’\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>It’s not unusual for schools to close for wildfire in California, but never has the impact from fires been so sustained and intense as in the last several years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2015-16 — the year of the Valley Fire — nearly 100 schools serving a combined 23,000-plus students closed due to wildfires, including a rural Fresno County charter school that lost 21 instructional days to the Rough Fire. The following fall, schools in Lake County closed again for a week during the Clayton Fire, which incinerated parts of Lower Lake about a half-hour north of Middletown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In August 2016, more major fires — including Cedar in Tulare County, Blue Cut and Pilot in sprawling San Bernardino County and the Gap Fire in Klamath National Forest — kept more than 91,000 kids home from school, with some closures lasting 12 school days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2017, school closures resulting from massive fires burning across the state, particularly in late fall, affected more than 865,000 students. That following March, closures due to flooding and mudslides resulting from the Thomas Fire in Ventura County affected 19,000 kids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The number of students affected by emergency closures tallied more than 1 million in the year of the Camp Fire, as thick, hazardous smoke spread across Northern California counties and polluted dense urban areas with multiple large school systems. Fires in Shasta, Riverside and Lake counties prompted weeklong closures that affected some 80,000 kids in the first few weeks of the 2018-19 term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, school districts that close for emergencies are able to request waivers from the state that essentially protect schools from taking a financial hit in their attendance-based funding for having to temporarily shutter. Schools are incentivized to report closures to the state, but not required.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And schools that receive state-approved attendance waivers are not required to make up those days of lost instruction. Nor are schools required to budget extra days in their academic calendars in case of emergencies. In an era of increasingly severe and lengthy closures, perhaps that should change, some educators say.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though academic research — \u003ca href=\"https://www.nber.org/papers/w20221\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">much of it focused on snow days \u003c/a>— indicates that students can lose a day or two of instruction without much damage to test scores, studies show \u003ca href=\"https://www.educationnext.org/defense-snow-days/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">longer absences do make a difference\u003c/a>, especially for disadvantaged students. In districts hardest hit by recent wildfires, CalMatters found, attendance often dropped precipitously even without an official school closure, or — if a school did close — morphed into high rates of chronic absenteeism after schools reopened.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The Oakland Raiders came and replaced the damaged football equipment. A team of San Francisco mental health professionals embedded themselves for two weeks to help with trauma counseling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as one blockbuster California fire gave way to the next, and the community became yesterday’s news, that support quietly receded. In 2015, the state had yet to forcefully react to schools affected by fires the way it would just two years later, after California’s wine country went up in flames.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since then, the state has used emergency declarations and targeted legislation to help insulate individual districts severely impacted by wildfire from immediate budget cuts as a result of lost enrollment. In Paradise, for instance, \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200AB72\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">legislation\u003c/a> to protect funding for fire-ravaged schools \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/2019/students-return-to-dramatically-different-paradise/616330\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">is preventing layoffs and preserving \u003c/a>as much as 60% of the district budget through the 2020-21 school year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Middletown’s fires largely predated those kinds of supports, and as families relocated, enrollment sank and its budget imploded. The year after the Valley Fire, the district put off buying new textbooks to fund a third school psychologist, which it couldn’t afford, long-term. By last year, the district of 1,500 students had only one mental health counselor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is wrong,” \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/08/Newsom-press-release.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Stone wrote to Gov. Gavin Newsom\u003c/a> in an unsuccessful March plea to broaden fire relief and extend more of it to districts still recovering from past fires. “We can’t afford to hire a lobbyist to get post-wildfire assistance, much less the extra teachers we need in order to provide things like AP classes and electives or the mental health professionals to support our traumatized students.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Substance abuse has ticked up among older students, she said, and fear of the losses the next wildfire might bring has become a constant. When she visited elementary classrooms last year, she noticed some kids were overstuffing their cubbies, “like little hoarders.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11775781\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1024px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/09/081519_Middletown_AW_sized_01.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11775781\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/09/081519_Middletown_AW_sized_01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"699\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/09/081519_Middletown_AW_sized_01.jpg 1024w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/09/081519_Middletown_AW_sized_01-160x109.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/09/081519_Middletown_AW_sized_01-800x546.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/09/081519_Middletown_AW_sized_01-1020x696.jpg 1020w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Middletown Unified School District Superintendent Catherine Stone in her office on the first day of school in Middletown on August 15, 2019. \u003ccite>(Anne Wernikoff/CalMatters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“It’s a gift that keeps on giving, if you will,” she said, echoing educators throughout the increasingly broad swath of California now prone to wildfire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the Valley Fire, every subsequent school year has brought fires that either have prompted evacuations, required use of the high school as an evacuation center or caused more school closures altogether.

But math proficiency measured by the state’s standardized exams plummeted 7 percentage points in a testing cycle in which the state’s schools experienced overall gains. The school year after the fire, the proportion of graduating seniors in the district deemed “college and career ready” by the state dropped from about 50% to 27.5%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last four school years, Middletown Unified schools have closed for 25 days because of fires, the equivalent of five weeks of instruction. And each new trauma resurrects old ones, says Middletown’s school psychologist, Jessica Morita.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Nov. 8, 2018, she said, when a plume of smoke drifted over one of the elementary school playgrounds, children at recess stood still “like little frozen statues” and looked skyward. Running full tilt into the school library, one announced frantically that something was on fire and everyone needed to go outside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was the Camp Fire burning through Paradise, 130 miles away, but the sense memory was embedded. “You can smell it and you can see it,” said Morita, “and it feels like the end of days all over again.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://calmatters.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CalMatters.org\u003c/a> is a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>From massive wildfires to mass shooting threats to dilapidated classrooms, California’s K-12 schools, and the 6.2 million children they serve, are facing a series unprecedented disruptions. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, the state’s public schools closed their doors and sent kids home in what appear to be record numbers, mainly as a result of sweeping natural disasters, according to a CalMatters analysis of public school closures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 2018-19 school year marked the third significant spike in four years. Since 2002, nearly two-thirds of the days lost to school closures have been wildfire-related, and of those, half have occurred in the past four school years. For some California schools, the onslaught has become a new normal as one disaster gives way to the next.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The trend largely tracks the rising frequency and severity of climate-fueled wildfires, with big bumps in 2003 and 2007, the years of San Diego County’s huge Cedar and Witch fires, and then, in recent years, a more sustained but equally dramatic climb with the historic 2017 Sonoma wine country fires and 2018 Camp Fire in and around the town of Paradise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But fire — which just this month\u003ca href=\"https://www.foxnews.com/us/california-tenaja-fire-evacuations-schools-close\"> shut down the entire Murrieta Valley Unified School District\u003c/a> in Southern California for at least a day — has not been the only big reason for lost school time. California students also lost instructional days for emergencies such as serious breakdowns in school facilities — mold or plumbing problems, for instance — as well as threats of potential gun violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the latter case, state data shows, even when school officials don’t deem a threat credible enough to cancel classes, fear alone has increasingly led significant numbers of parents to keep their children home more often.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last school year, \u003ca href=\"https://disasterdays.calmatters.org/california-school-closures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">emergency closures in at least 2,262 schools\u003c/a> – from the state’s most densely populated urban hubs to its most remote pockets – impacted more than 1.2 million students. The closures ranged from a single lost day to weeks without instruction. Put another way, roughly one in five students in California was sent home in the 2018-19 school year at least once due to either a natural disaster day, a maintenance crisis, a potential school shooting or some other emergency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a situation that has crept only gradually onto lawmakers’ radar, as the occasional break from routine has, in many districts, morphed into longer and more disruptive interruptions. Losses of 10 school days or more to wildfire — virtually unheard of in past decades — have occurred hundreds of times since 2015, impacting schools across California, from Oroville to Ojai.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.educationnext.org/defense-snow-days/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A 2015 study\u003c/a> found that longer, unexpected absences \u003ca href=\"https://www.educationnext.org/time-for-school/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">take a significant toll \u003c/a>on learning.

Wildfires have closed the school at least five times in the past four years. \u003ccite>(Randall Benton/CalMatters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In an effort to understand how emergencies, disasters and threats impact the everyday operations of California’s public schools, CalMatters used the California Public Records Act to obtain records detailing thousands of emergency school closure incidents reported by local school districts to the state Department of Education since the 2002-03 school year — when the state began keeping such records. From those reports, we built our own \u003ca href=\"https://disasterdays.calmatters.org/california-school-closures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">database of school closures\u003c/a>, spanning 17 school years and accounting for more than 34,000 total days of lost instruction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A temporary change in California’s instructional requirements from 2009-10 to 2014-15, the years of the recession, may have depressed the number of closures reported to the state during those years. But since 2015-16, the state has recorded more school closures from wildfire and smoky air than at any point in the last two decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here is what else the CalMatters’ analysis found:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Widespread school closures have become more frequent. A big reason is wildfire.\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In recent years, thousands of public schools statewide have reported closing for emergencies, citing a variety of reasons. But wildfire has been the cause of the most dramatic spikes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recent fires have been especially disruptive. Of the more than 34,000 school closure days in CalMatters’ database, nearly two-thirds — 21,100 — stemmed from wildfires. Of these, more than half, or about 10,700, occurred since 2015. In some areas, the fire threat has been so relentless that some schools have closed as many as five times in the last four years due to wildfires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://e.infogram.com/518a0941-9852-4946-97cc-36afc3d33432?src=embed\" title=\"CA School Closures\" width=\"800\" height=\"737\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none;\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>And those fire-related closures have gotten longer.\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Until recently, only a handful of schools had reported losing more than 10 days in a single school year to wildfire-related emergencies. In the last two school years, that count has risen to nearly 300 schools. Before the 2015-16 school year, no California school had reported losing 15 days or more to wildfires.

At one point last November, hazardous air quality from the Camp and Woolsey fires, among others, prompted some 180 school districts, with a combined enrollment of more than 1 million students, to \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/environment/2018/11/school-closures-california-wildfires-1-million-students/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announce they would be canceling school\u003c/a> at some point that week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since then, California lawmakers have \u003ca href=\"https://www.cde.ca.gov/ls/ep/airquality.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">updated guidelines\u003c/a> to help schools consistently determine when to close due to poor air quality.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>But fire is far from the sole reason for California school closures.\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Also substantial were closures due to extreme weather and natural disasters other than wildfires, such as floods and snowstorms. Infrastructure issues — electrical failures, asbestos, mold, insect infestations, contaminated water — also cut into class time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Threats of the human variety have also \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/11/us/california-school-shots-fired/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">increasingly been an issue\u003c/a>, whether from \u003ca href=\"https://www.apnews.com/0040f6d6198a48a9ac085be5cbca5323\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">guns\u003c/a> or \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/School-closure-over-swine-flu-fast-and-smooth-3162779.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">epidemics of swine flu\u003c/a>.

School funding, which is tied to attendance, was protected for three years in Santa Rosa, and, after the 2018 Camp Fire, in Paradise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But state and local education officials say more comprehensive solutions — and more assistance — are needed. Suggestions made in interviews with CalMatters include:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Require schools to make up at least some instructional days lost to emergency closures.\u003c/strong> Right now, that’s optional, and make-up days cost school districts money. CalMatters’ analysis found that some districts — in the Lake County community of Middletown, for instance — have lost five weeks of school time over the past four years.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\nProtect state funding for schools shut down by disasters more uniformly, and for longer periods.\u003c/strong> Schools affected by wildfires say the impact is far more intense than Californians realize, and lasts longer because fires are more fierce and frequent. Fourteen of the 20 most destructive fires in state history have occurred in the last 12 years. Though the state has extended financial aid to the hardest-hit districts, assistance has been case-by-case, and so far only for up to three years. Paradise’s superintendent, for instance, has already said schools will need a longer grace period to avoid steep cuts to services and programs.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Get serious about school-based mental health, especially in wildfire country.\u003c/strong> It isn’t just about funding, though that’s a big part of it, school officials say. Mental health professionals can be hard to find in rural parts of the state, where recent fires have done some of the most damage. Climate-driven crises appear to be happening closer together. And long after schools reopen after a disaster, teachers and students say they continue to struggle for normalcy.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>CalMatters.org is a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

From those reports, we built our own \u003ca href=\"https://disasterdays.calmatters.org/california-school-closures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">database of school closures\u003c/a>, spanning 17 school years and accounting for more than 34,000 total days of lost instruction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A temporary change in California’s instructional requirements from 2009-10 to 2014-15, the years of the recession, may have depressed the number of closures reported to the state during those years. But since 2015-16, the state has recorded more school closures from wildfire and smoky air than at any point in the last two decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here is what else the CalMatters’ analysis found:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Widespread school closures have become more frequent. A big reason is wildfire.\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In recent years, thousands of public schools statewide have reported closing for emergencies, citing a variety of reasons. But wildfire has been the cause of the most dramatic spikes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recent fires have been especially disruptive. Of the more than 34,000 school closure days in CalMatters’ database, nearly two-thirds — 21,100 — stemmed from wildfires. Of these, more than half, or about 10,700, occurred since 2015. In some areas, the fire threat has been so relentless that some schools have closed as many as five times in the last four years due to wildfires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://e.infogram.com/518a0941-9852-4946-97cc-36afc3d33432?src=embed\" title=\"CA School Closures\" width=\"800\" height=\"737\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none;\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>And those fire-related closures have gotten longer.\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Until recently, only a handful of schools had reported losing more than 10 days in a single school year to wildfire-related emergencies. In the last two school years, that count has risen to nearly 300 schools. Before the 2015-16 school year, no California school had reported losing 15 days or more to wildfires.

At one point last November, hazardous air quality from the Camp and Woolsey fires, among others, prompted some 180 school districts, with a combined enrollment of more than 1 million students, to \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/environment/2018/11/school-closures-california-wildfires-1-million-students/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announce they would be canceling school\u003c/a> at some point that week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since then, California lawmakers have \u003ca href=\"https://www.cde.ca.gov/ls/ep/airquality.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">updated guidelines\u003c/a> to help schools consistently determine when to close due to poor air quality.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>But fire is far from the sole reason for California school closures.\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Also substantial were closures due to extreme weather and natural disasters other than wildfires, such as floods and snowstorms.

Fourteen of the 20 most destructive fires in state history have occurred in the last 12 years. Though the state has extended financial aid to the hardest-hit districts, assistance has been case-by-case, and so far only for up to three years. Paradise’s superintendent, for instance, has already said schools will need a longer grace period to avoid steep cuts to services and programs.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Get serious about school-based mental health, especially in wildfire country.\u003c/strong> It isn’t just about funding, though that’s a big part of it, school officials say. Mental health professionals can be hard to find in rural parts of the state, where recent fires have done some of the most damage. Climate-driven crises appear to be happening closer together.
