It has become an annual ritual where school districts start the process of trying to find ways to balance their budgets with a threat of teacher layoffs. Across the county each school district is targeting teacher salaries as the way to go, in order to bring about cost savings. San Diego City Schools is asking for an 8 percent cut in teachers’ salaries, as is Chula Vista Elementary, two percent in San Ysidro, two percent in Vista and the drum beat goes on.

<p>A recent set of recommendations by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) has identified ten areas for improvement that the collective leadership of the Southwestern Community College District is already addressing. We began this effort following receipt of the preliminary recommendations of the accreditation team in October 2009. There is no reason for students, parents, or the community to be alarmed. </p>

Brother Chunky
As, you are about to celebrate another Milestone Park Day, I thought it would be important to share with you a bit of history related to the take over of the park that has often been overlooked. Specifically, I have reference to Charlie Vasquez, George Baca and Mrs. Nellie Vasquez and the members of Southwestern college MEChA, which had been started by Charlie Vasquez, George Baca, and Allan Cazares in 1968.
