Huge win for California educators!

We Won Paid Pregnancy Leave!

Starting January 1, 2027, California's school staff will have up to 14 weeks of PAID pregnancy disability leave. We fought hard for this and we did it together. Every one of us who shared our story, gathered signatures or showed up at the Capitol to fight for this leave made this happen. This legislation will transform the lives of California families for generations and we won it together.

Today we were honored to celebrate the retirement of Mary Dzierzynski and Pam Lind. After many years of dedicated service to our students, staff, and school community, we wish them both the very best in this next chapter. Thank you, Mary and Pam, for the lasting impact you’ve made at District #429. You will be greatly missed!
