"content": "\u003cp>San Francisco school officials should focus on resolving the district’s budget before making final decisions about possible school closures, Mayor London Breed suggested during \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/forum/2010101907207/mayor-london-breed-on-why-san-francisco-should-give-her-another-term\">an interview with KQED’s Forum\u003c/a> on Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her comments come as the San Francisco Unified School District faces multiple colliding issues, including a budget crisis that puts it at risk of a state takeover and other operational dysfunction. On Sunday, Breed announced she would \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12005932/sf-mayor-sends-team-to-address-crisis-at-school-district-but-dont-call-it-a-takeover\">send a team of five experts\u003c/a> led by top city administrators to help the district “stabilize.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This year, when we balance this budget without school closures at this time, it’s going to give us an understanding of what the school district has to do long term,” Breed told KQED on Wednesday. “Because the fact is, no one can say, ‘We’re going to keep all the schools open’ or ‘We’re going to close the school.’ No one can say that because we don’t have the facts.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district’s budget deficit is projected to reach $148.5 million this school year, and intervention by the California Department of Education has already begun. While the district is required to pass a balanced budget by December, it has also been moving forward with plans for its first campus closures in 20 years — which district officials have said are meant to make up for steadily declining enrollment, not to cut costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed did not confirm any timeline for the next steps for school closures, which the district ultimately will decide. District officials on Tuesday said they still intend to share out a short list of schools that could face closure by October; that target was \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12004831/anxious-waiting-game-drags-on-as-sfusd-delays-list-of-school-closures\">pushed back from last week\u003c/a> after Superintendent Matt Wayne said officials needed more time to “carefully review everything.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our goal is to set a timeline, which we don’t have at this point, but we hope to have it sometime in October to put parents at ease,” Breed said. “People need to have clarity, they need to have a timeline, and our goal is to get there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12004831 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/240916-UNIONSFSCHOOLCLOSURES-42-BL-KQED-1020x680.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the district’s initial timeline, the list of campuses recommended for closure would go up for a school board vote in December, with the affected campuses shutting down at the end of the academic year. While he has not set a new date for releasing the list of schools that will close or merge, Wayne said on Tuesday that he still expects a board vote before the end of the year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“December will be [a] critical month because this is when we present our updated fiscal stabilization plan, which shows how we’re going to balance the budget and ensure that we maintain local control, and then it’s also when we’re going to present to the board and ask for their action on our school closure plan,” Wayne said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Staving off school closure plans until after the district balances its budget would align with a resolution that Supervisor Connie Chan introduced on Tuesday, although Breed did not say she is backing the proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“SFUSD should be focused on shoring up their existing budgetary concerns,” Chan said in a statement. “We need to work with the California Department of Education, school district families, and community stakeholders on solutions to balance the district’s budget deficit in the best interest of San Francisco students and families.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The District 1 supervisor said rushing school closures could also hurt the likelihood of the district passing its $790 million bond on the ballot this November. The measure, Proposition A, would provide critical funding for schools and district infrastructure, including the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12002125/as-san-francisco-school-closures-loom-frustrated-teachers-say-hiring-has-hit-a-wall\">beleaguered hiring and payroll system\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed, who is facing a tight reelection this November, announced that she would deploy the so-called School Stabilization Team shortly after an emergency school board meeting on Sunday at which officials said Wayne would stay on as superintendent. During a joint press conference with Wayne on Tuesday, SFUSD Board President Matt Alexander said he called the meeting and requested support from Breed because he felt a sense of urgency to address fiscal and operational problems in the district “immediately.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alexander and Wayne met Tuesday morning with the leaders of Breed’s emergency team — Maria Su, the executive director of the Department of Children Youth and Their Families, and Phil Ginsburg, the general manager of the Recreation and Parks Department — and started to work out “specific ideas” for how they could help.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It has been very clear from the mayor, from Maria Su, from Phil Ginsburg, that this is a partnership,” Alexander said. “It is not the city telling us what to do. It is the city offering resources, supporting us, working in partnership with the school district to address the issues the Superintendent outlined.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Forum, Breed asked SFUSD parents to “please be patient with us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For sure, this year, the first plan is to balance the budget for December,” Breed said. “We need to look at the data to understand and determine what will happen, and until we do that, I can’t say anything will happen this school year.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

On Sunday, Breed announced she would \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12005932/sf-mayor-sends-team-to-address-crisis-at-school-district-but-dont-call-it-a-takeover\">send a team of five experts\u003c/a> led by top city administrators to help the district “stabilize.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This year, when we balance this budget without school closures at this time, it’s going to give us an understanding of what the school district has to do long term,” Breed told KQED on Wednesday. “Because the fact is, no one can say, ‘We’re going to keep all the schools open’ or ‘We’re going to close the school.’ No one can say that because we don’t have the facts.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

While the district is required to pass a balanced budget by December, it has also been moving forward with plans for its first campus closures in 20 years — which district officials have said are meant to make up for steadily declining enrollment, not to cut costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed did not confirm any timeline for the next steps for school closures, which the district ultimately will decide. District officials on Tuesday said they still intend to share out a short list of schools that could face closure by October; that target was \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12004831/anxious-waiting-game-drags-on-as-sfusd-delays-list-of-school-closures\">pushed back from last week\u003c/a> after Superintendent Matt Wayne said officials needed more time to “carefully review everything.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our goal is to set a timeline, which we don’t have at this point, but we hope to have it sometime in October to put parents at ease,” Breed said. “People need to have clarity, they need to have a timeline, and our goal is to get there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

While he has not set a new date for releasing the list of schools that will close or merge, Wayne said on Tuesday that he still expects a board vote before the end of the year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“December will be [a] critical month because this is when we present our updated fiscal stabilization plan, which shows how we’re going to balance the budget and ensure that we maintain local control, and then it’s also when we’re going to present to the board and ask for their action on our school closure plan,” Wayne said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Staving off school closure plans until after the district balances its budget would align with a resolution that Supervisor Connie Chan introduced on Tuesday, although Breed did not say she is backing the proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“SFUSD should be focused on shoring up their existing budgetary concerns,” Chan said in a statement. “We need to work with the California Department of Education, school district families, and community stakeholders on solutions to balance the district’s budget deficit in the best interest of San Francisco students and families.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The District 1 supervisor said rushing school closures could also hurt the likelihood of the district passing its $790 million bond on the ballot this November. The measure, Proposition A, would provide critical funding for schools and district infrastructure, including the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12002125/as-san-francisco-school-closures-loom-frustrated-teachers-say-hiring-has-hit-a-wall\">beleaguered hiring and payroll system\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed, who is facing a tight reelection this November, announced that she would deploy the so-called School Stabilization Team shortly after an emergency school board meeting on Sunday at which officials said Wayne would stay on as superintendent. During a joint press conference with Wayne on Tuesday, SFUSD Board President Matt Alexander said he called the meeting and requested support from Breed because he felt a sense of urgency to address fiscal and operational problems in the district “immediately.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alexander and Wayne met Tuesday morning with the leaders of Breed’s emergency team — Maria Su, the executive director of the Department of Children Youth and Their Families, and Phil Ginsburg, the general manager of the Recreation and Parks Department — and started to work out “specific ideas” for how they could help.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It has been very clear from the mayor, from Maria Su, from Phil Ginsburg, that this is a partnership,” Alexander said. “It is not the city telling us what to do. It is the city offering resources, supporting us, working in partnership with the school district to address the issues the Superintendent outlined.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Forum, Breed asked SFUSD parents to “please be patient with us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For sure, this year, the first plan is to balance the budget for December,” Breed said. “We need to look at the data to understand and determine what will happen, and until we do that, I can’t say anything will happen this school year.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Organized by UNITE HERE Local 2, which represents bellhops, housekeepers, and cooks, the strike began Sunday after months of tough negotiations with Westin St. Francis, Hilton Union Square, and Grand Hyatt San Francisco. The union’s contract expired on Aug. 14. \u003ccite>(Gilare Zada/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>After the pandemic caused major disruptions to the hospitality industry, hotels and travel seem to be bouncing back. Although hotels haven’t quite reached pre-pandemic levels of occupancy, \u003ca href=\"https://www.ahla.com/news/hotels-will-pay-historic-wages-generate-record-level-tax-revenue-2024\">hoteliers can expect higher rates than last year\u003c/a>, according to data collected by the American Hotel and Lodging Association.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The trade organization also projected California’s hotels will pay employees a record of more than \u003ca href=\"https://www.ahla.com/sites/default/files/Oxford.Wages_.and_.Salaries.pdf\">$15.3 billion in wages, salaries and other compensation\u003c/a> in 2024, up from $14.7 billion in 2023 and $13.3 billion in 2019.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, union members, hotel representatives and experts agree that the picture of post-pandemic recovery is more complicated. Wages have been growing slower than inflation, said Ken Jacobs, co-chair of the UC Berkeley Center for Labor, meaning hotel workers’ pay has less buying power than it did previously.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12005991\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12005991\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/SFHotelWorkers3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1500\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/SFHotelWorkers3.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/SFHotelWorkers3-800x600.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/SFHotelWorkers3-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/SFHotelWorkers3-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/SFHotelWorkers3-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/SFHotelWorkers3-1920x1440.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hotel workers strike outside of the Hilton’s Union Square location in San Francisco on Sept. 23, 2024. \u003ccite>(Gilare Zada/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>During the pandemic, Jacobs added, “companies significantly cut the number of workers, which created a big increase in workload for other employees. As people come back to hotels, the workloads remain much greater.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This has implications for the health and safety of hotel employees, said Lizzy Tapia, president of UNITE HERE Local 2.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really about respect,” Tapia said. “We’re fighting for our members who are at home, who no longer have full-time work, and also our members who are currently working and having to do double or triple the amount of work because their coworkers are not here to help them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12005037 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/06/AP23177834356485-1020x680.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A representative for Hilton San Francisco Union Square said in a statement that the hotel is “committed to negotiating in good faith to reach fair and reasonable agreements that are beneficial to both our valued Team Members and to our hotel.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>David Lewin, the general manager of the Grand Hyatt, told KQED that business is not likely to make a full recovery for the next three to five years. He cited a lack of conventions in the area, a decrease in Asian tourists, and less business locally as fewer people commute to the office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The “less than savory light” cast upon San Francisco’s reputation in recent years hasn’t helped either, he said. Despite those challenges, he said the company remains committed to negotiating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We remain ready to be at the table tomorrow,” Lewin said. “Our goal is a mutually satisfactory resolution and a contract that lasts for the next three to five years. And we’re ready to do that whenever the noise stops.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The union pointed out that Salesforce just held its annual Dreamforce conference — attended by 45,000 people — and that employees waited until it was over to strike. Now that the conference has ended, workers like Janet Wong, a housekeeper at the Hilton, said they will not return to work until better benefits are on the table.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our last three-day strike was very strong. That’s why I’m not going to the table for bargaining, Wong said from the picket line. “That’s why we continue. We need to get our benefits.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They may be joined by thousands of hotel workers across the U.S. who have authorized strikes at Hilton, Hyatt, Marriott and Omni hotel properties where contract negotiations remain unresolved. Over 10,000 workers in Baltimore, Boston, Honolulu, Kauai, New Haven, San Diego, San Francisco, San José, San Mateo County and Seattle have already gone on strike, and strikes have also been authorized in Oakland and Sacramento, according to a union press release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED’s \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/gilarezada\">Gilare Zada\u003c/a> contributed to this report. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",
