An investigative report by The Examiner found that, since August 2021, Marina Middle School has lost almost a third of its staff. In the 2022-23 academic year, a security guard, a social worker, and a head counselor vacated their positions.

Teachers at San Francisco Unified’s Marina Middle School are threatening a sickout due to poor working conditions and inadequate communication and support from administration, according to a survey released by the teachers union this week.

‘A catastrophic staffing situation’: SF public school teachers take to streets again Teachers protest staffing shortages, low wages and faulty payroll system in advance of Tuesday’s Board of Education meeting Issues with understaffing led civil rights law firm Public Advocates to file a Williams complaint with the school district on Jan. 23. The official complaint stated that “Both daily substitute teachers and long-term substitute teachers are regularly called upon to cover classes, along with Marina Middle School’s certificated teachers themselves, who are asked to give up their prep periods to provide class coverage.

The Examiner reached out to Phung for an update on the Williams complaint; Phung responded that “ had recently met with Public Advocates and gave them the updates.” She declined to provide further information. Four acts to catch in concert in SF this March Biig Piig, Robyn Hitchcock, Circa Waves and Betty Who light up local venues in March“They reported that they are making good progress. The response to the complaint is first obligation,” he said, and added that it is incumbent on the district to fill those vacancies, and that a national teacher shortage would not excuse the district from noncompliance.

The district could face civil lawsuits if it does not resolve the issues brought up in the Williams complaint by the end of March.

People blame the teachers, yet the kids, lack of discipline and parental involvement creates a mess at these schools. Work there. You’ll know.

I swear the public school system sucked ever since I was younger, I feel like they don't give one sh*t

ManKitLam4 Go to the Marina Safeway regularly and you’ll see what’s happening in that school. Bad news kids.

Ummmm. 26 employees took this survey out of over how many employees, 100? Only three people left their position this year? Welcome to public education after the pandemic.

What's the real issue because class size and pay aren't it

So glad that we got daughter out of SFUSD.
