I was proud to join Board Vice President Rocio Rivas and Board Member Newbill in sponsoring the resolution “Workplace Readiness Week in California High Schools”.
The resolution:
- Designates an AB 800 Coordinator to lead Districtwide implementation of Workplace Readiness Week and worker-rights education
- Provides PD and two annual trainings (per semester) for counselors, CTE/Work Experience educators, APs handling work permits, and 12th-grade Social Studies teachers, and
- Distributes workers’ rights materials via Schoology/LMS and posts UC Labor Center “Know Your Rights” posters in all secondary Counseling Offices.
You can read the full text of the resolution in the agenda under Item 29.
