In March 2006, the San Francisco Board of Education charged itself with preparing a long-range plan to address declining student enrollment and to ensure the success of every student in our City's public schools. Through the Student Enrollment, Recruitment, and Retention (SERR) Initiative, the San Francisco Unified School District is developing a plan to support closing the achievement gap, provide all students equitable access to high-quality education in integrated learning environments, and sustain and build student enrollment to strengthen the District's financial condition.
The more we listened to students, parents, and community members, the more clear it became that while the community might differ on the details, we all share a core set of aspirations.
This report organizes findings into 6 sections:
1) Quality Schools - Parents use test scores as shorthand for evaluating academic achievement, but their demand for quality, and what it takes to help their children learn, is much more complex
2) Safe Schools and Neighborhoods - Parents are concerned about their children's physical and emotional safety
3) Strong School Communities - Parents think of their children's schools as small communities
4) Systems that Works for Families - Parents want to feel that the District is on their side
5) Systems that are Fair - Parents want consistency, predictability, and equity
6) Effective Leadership - Parents want the District to have a proactive, clear, long-term plan
