From: Crocker/Riverside Elementary PTA & concerned community members
Petition Summary:
Funding for Basic Operational Expenses
1. We request that the district review the state priorities outlined in the new Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) and ensure that our school site receives full funding on basic operational expenses which include: supplies and materials, copier rental, library books, computers, tutoring and other needs historically paid by the district.
Funding for Identified Student Needs
2. Rigorous outcomes are to be set for each student under the new Local Control Funding Formula and we request that the district work in partnership with our school to provide adequate funding to meet those goals. We believe the district must first carefully review our School Development and Improvement Plan before incorporating those goals into its own district-wide Local Control and Accountability Plan.
Community Meeting to Address Funding Shortfalls
3. We request that the board member who represents Crocker/Riverside commit to holding a community meeting with district officials to explain how the current inadequate funding will be addressed under the Local control Funding Formula (LCFF).

The district has yet to acknowledge our formal request for a meeting regarding these operational funding gaps. I am currently preparing a formal inquiry to the school board to ensure our grievances remain in the public record.
September 18, 2013
The momentum behind this request for transparent school funding grows stronger each day. This collective energy demonstrates that our community expects the district to honor its commitment to our students and their operational needs.

My kids go here and it is crazy we have to fundraise for basic stuff like paper and printers. Do your job district!
Crocker riverside is a great school but the lack of support from the district is really showing lately.
we pay our taxes and expect the schools to be funded properly. stop the budget games.
FIX THIS NOW. Our kids deserve better than having to share books and old computers.
How am i supposed to explain to my daughter why she doesnt have enough supplies for class? stop ignoring us.

We need common funding, common resources, and common opportunities if we're going to have the common core.
