Dear Red Star Parent
Red Star has experienced remarkable growth in two years, growing from two to 22 club teams and over 245 competitive youth soccer players. Over 58% of these participants are from Los Altos. It has been a great disappointment that in spite of these growing numbers involving a majority of players from Los Altos that the Los Altos School District has not allocated ANY field space to Red Star for our children’s practice and games this Fall.
We as a local resident eligible to attend LASD are shocked at
this lack of fair and equitable treatment regarding use of these public
facilities. Other organizations with a much smaller % of LASD residents (and maybe less than 50%) get priority and access to LASD public facilities. With Red Star's local population, we are certainly entitled to receive equitable access as well.
I have added my name to this petition in order to express my
opposition to the current field allocation practice and request a written
response from LASD providing a resolution that demonstrates a fair and
equitable allocation of Los Altos public facilities among all users.
That's where we need your help. We would like you to please help us by signing this petition and supporting this cause.
Thank you.

ive been spending my evenings reading all of your stories and the frustration regarding field access is just everywhere. im currently putting together a package of these comments to send over to the district office because they really need to see what this looks like for our families.

im honestly so blown away by how much this has taken off. it feels like people are finally starting to realize just how unfair this whole field situation really is and its all because you guys kept pushing.

My kid barely gets any practice time on these fields. It is ridiculous how unfair the schedule is right now.
200+ kids need somewhere to play! The current setup just doesnt work for anyone.
ABOUT TIME someone stood up for all these players. we cant keep squeezing everyone onto one tiny patch of grass.
Fix this allocation mess. Its getting impossible to find space for my daughter team to even warm up.
so tired of practicing in the dark at 8pm because we have nowhere else to go. GIVE US MORE FIELD TIME

The district needs to treat all clubs the same. Stop playing favorites.
