While our children likely think the biggest event this week is June 6, the last day of school, there is another important event the day before—election day. If you can, please vote on June 5!

												Our students have learned a lot this year, and it wouldn't have been possible without the hard work and dedication of their teachers and family members, as well as many community volunteers and organizations. On their behalf, I express my deepest gratitude.

—Dr. Vincent Matthews, Superintendent

									[41] Why teaching English through content is critical for ELL students

Teaching grade-level content to students who have just arrived in the United States and whose English skills are limited is a difficult task. High school-level content specialists especially have little training on how to integrate language acquisition into their content. Often teachers deal with that by either dumbing down the curriculum to make it linguistically simpler or alternating between lessons focused on language and those about content.

											[42] 5.26.18

									[43] Paramedics test SF high school students' skills

Several San Francisco high schools offer vocational “pathways” for students. KCBS Radio's Jenna Lane reports on a medical program at Galileo Academy of Science and Technology, in which professionals administer one of the final exams.

									[45] Aptos Middle School students use Makerspace to build prosthetic hands for children

Students in San Francisco are hoping to use technology to change the lives of children around the world. These seventh-graders at Apotos Middle School are using 3D printers to build prosthetic hands. The engineering students begin with software designs, then move on to the printing process, which takes about 20 hours.

											[46] 5.18.18

									[47] Bay Area middle school students ready for robot face-off

A group of Bay Area middle school students are doing some heavy lifting, at least when it comes to technology. They're building complex robots capable of picking up objects and moving them with precision. The robotics students at Willie Brown Middle School in San Francisco even write the computer code that controls their machines.

									[49] Fil-Am is new manager of leading SF community radio station

The San Francisco Unified School District and its community broadcast service KALW, a pioneer in public broadcasting since 1941, have selected a new general manager, a Filipino American, with deep roots in both public media and education to lead the station. Tina Pamintuan, who has held various leadership positions in public media as an editor, producer, and program founder, will take the reins of KALW from departing general manager Matt Martin, who has led the station’s growth for more than a decade.

									[51] Middle school girls in S.F. pitch tech solutions for bullying

Students at a middle school in the Excelsior are showing off an app they created for Technovation, a worldwide global tech entrepreneurship competition for girls.

									[53] ‘Last stop’ school cuts absences in half with social, emotional focus

On a Tuesday morning, Alba Perez was the only student sitting inside of a classroom at Civic Center Secondary School, but she wasn’t alone. Two teachers and a social worker engaged the 14 year old as she constructed a marble run out of paper. “In other schools, you don’t sit in a classroom and do stuff. You sit in a classroom writing and listen all day to people telling you what to do,” Perez said. “Here, they give me options. And if I don’t want to do anything, I don’t have to. It works for me, because why would you do something you don’t want to do?”

	[55] SF Symphony program makes sure there’s music in kids’ lives

At Spring Valley Science Elementary School, on San Francisco’s Nob Hill, a small crowd of third-graders is chanting in unison, gleefully shouting, “No! No! No!” In front of them, the band Brass Roots is leading them in call-and-response, as part of a demonstration of New Orleans-style music. It’s one locale within the performance’s wide-ranging presentation of brass music, as the four-piece band presents music from British marching bands to Brazilian and African traditions to the stylings of Duke Ellington.

	[57] SF voters to weigh supplementing educator salaries with parcel tax

As teachers walk out of classrooms across the country to demand increased wages and resources, San Francisco voters are being asked to help address an educator recruitment and retention crisis on the home front by backing a tax that would boost salaries by 7 percent for two decades. Proposition G, on the June 5 primary ballot, is expected to generate $50 million annually by levying a $298 parcel tax—a type of property tax that is not directly based on property values—on real estate owners, with a few exceptions.

	[59] High school students as science teachers for the day

Kids at Stevenson Elementary School in San Francisco received a unique science lesson taught by Lincoln High School students. KCBS Radio's Margie Shafer reports.
