Position Papers
The Issue of Declining Enrollment for Cajon Valley School District
We need to find new solutions to decreased funding from the State due to declining enrollment populations.
Closing the Achievement Gap Among our students
We must close the "achievement gap" between the various ethnic and economic groups of students if our society is going to maintain its strong growth in the generations to come.
Increased access to technology for students and staff
In this new age of technology, being able to access information is key to learning about the way the world works.
