\n\n

Over the last few weeks we have heard from multiple LAUSD administrators and Board members how our collective efforts are starting to shape policy discussion.

Let’s make 2026 our year!

We need speakers for the following upcoming Board meetings, and fresh faces are especially effective at demonstrating our growing coalition:

1/27 @ 3:30 PM

1/28 @ 10:00 AM

2/10 @ 3:30 PM

2/11 @ 10:00 AM

You can find sign-up instructions here. Sign-ups for each meeting happen the day before the meeting, and they go quickly.

The School Board headquarters are located downtown at 333 S. Beaudry Ave. If you need a ride, please let us know and we may be able to arrange a carpool. There is also a call-in option available for those who can’t attend in person.

Prepare a short statement or speak from the heart. There is no wrong way to use your public comment, but if you need help, feel free to reach out. We’re here to help!

You can find video clips of SBS members’ previous public comments here, on the new wesbite.

Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing on the Impact of Technology on Kids

$\"\"$

\n\n

US Lawmakers held a hearing last week on the impact of screen time on children. Some highlights:

Bipartisan support for social media bans
Jared Cooney Horvath & Emily Cherkin advocating for a return to analog learning in elementary years
Concern for student mental health and wellbeing in the age of AI

A rare moment of bipartisan agreement that has been getting a lot of attention. You can watch the entire hearing (or skip through to the highlights) using the link above and you can download testimony from Jared Cooney Horvath, Emily Cherkin, Jean Twinge, and others here.
