 Just a couple of weeks ago, I returned from a cross­cultural trip to Indonesia whereI helped a college develop its English Language credential program. I also sawfirsthand their amazing work using restorative practices and youth empowerment tobuild trust between Muslim and Christian communities.  This gave me an entirelynew perspective on these approaches, which we also use at LPS, and I amexploring ways to learn from each other and connect our programs.  During thattrip, I also co­authored an opinion piece with LPS Advisor Gary Yee on bridging thecharter ­ district divide in Oakland. Overall, there is so much to celebrate here atLPS and we embrace every opportunity to improve our work for our students andtheir families.   

We look forward to staying in touch with you each month and hope that together wecan make real our vision of educational equity.

 

Yours in partnership,

Dr. Louise Bay Waters Superintendent & CEO
