Over the past few months, I have joined various members of Visions\u2019 leadership team and Board of Directors to meet with State Legislators and their staff. In these meetings, we highlight how schools like Visions are an important option for families who need different public education options. We also advocate for equitable funding, ensuring that <\/span><strong>all<\/strong> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">of California\u2019s public school students receive the resources they deserve.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These efforts have been supported by our partnership with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kppublicaffairs.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KP Public Affairs<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> who are leaders in Sacramento advocacy. We\u2019re thankful for the support from Brian White and Marlon Lara to help us share the Visions story and our mission to serve students.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have been fortunate to have some great conversations with lawmakers so far. Having face-to-face conversations has allowed us to educate legislators and clarify questions about our school and make connections with lawmakers as they negotiate the state budget and upcoming bills. It\u2019s important that our elected representatives have the opportunity to know us as their constituents who value public school options and equitable funding.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As budget negotiations continue and bills related to charter schools move forward, we will continue to advocate for legislation that supports diverse public education. As inflation and other downward economic pressures forecast a state budget deficit, it is vital that we continue to hold our elected officials to their promises to support California\u2019s future by investing in its students.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We will continue to share updates on our legislative work throughout the year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sincerely,<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Steve Olmos<br \/>\n<\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Superintendent\/Executive Director<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":17576,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false},"categories":[7],"tags":[1012,1011,1009,1010,1013,1014],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.0 -
