board briefs
At its August 13 public meeting, the Board of Education received an initial report on the feasibility of a parcel tax dedicated entirely to teachers and school employees. We'll have lots more information about this shortly, and in coming months AUSD will also be conducting an extensive listening tour to get community feedback.
The presentation for the parcel tax report is available on the August 13 agenda. The next Board of Education meeting is August 27.

The Board of Education is still accepting applications for district representatives to the boards of two local charter organizations: Academy of Alameda and Community Learning Centers Schools (the organization that oversees ACLC and Nea).

About AUSD
Serving Alameda children since 1855, the Alameda Unified School District’s mission is to effectively use our limited resources to ensure that every child succeeds. We believe that our diverse community of students, given a rigorous academic program in an inclusive, safe and secure environment, will be prepared to be responsible citizens.
The district, which serves about 9500 students, has a wide range of school offerings, including a preschool, nine elementary schools, four middle schools, two comprehensive high schools, a continuation high school, an Early College High School, and an adult school. Approximately 18% of students are English language learners, reflecting the richness of cultures represented in our island city.
We are very proud of the high quality education our staff provides. U.S. News and World Report has recognized Alameda and Encinal High Schools as two of the top 1500 high schools in the nation. Our schools have also received gold, blue, and green ribbon awards from both the California and U.S. Departments of Education, and our graduates go on to a wide range of colleges and universities, as well as apprenticeships and jobs.
