"Federal funding cuts would decimate San Francisco public schools, the city’s K-12 superintendent warned families last week.
Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency is reportedly shredding the U.S. Department of Education. In San Francisco, this unprecedented federal action is producing a familiar result: an existential crisis for the school district.
'It would devastate this district,' San Francisco Unified School District Superintendent Maria Su said at a board meeting Feb. 11. 'There is just no way we will be able to sustain that.'
Su was appointed last fall to lead SFUSD in the midst of a crisis: an impending state takeover, a botched rollout of campus closures, an intractable payroll fiasco, and a staffing shortfall. Just a few months into her tenure, DOGE began hacking away at the federal government, threatening to make a bad situation worse for San Francisco’s struggling K-12 schools."
