Show Notes

Escuela Popular, a beloved charter school in San José serving immigrant families for over four decades, faces potential shutdown due to teacher credential issues. The East Side Union High School District board votes Thursday on revoking its charters, leaving hundreds of students, many English learners, uncertain about their future. The school, a grassroots effort, offers a K through twelve program and adult high school, providing a family-like support system not found elsewhere. Despite progress, the school struggles with a nationwide teacher shortage and stringent state law oversight, leaving its future hanging in the balance.
