More than 30 IUSD students from Creekside, Irvine, Northwood, Portola, University and Woodbridge high schools, traveled to Sacramento to discuss issues impacting education with state legislators and other influential policymakers. Superintendent Terry Walker, Board Members Lauren Brooks and Katie McEwen, along with a handful of teachers, and PTA representatives accompanied the students.
To prepare for the trip, students met weekly for one month. During this time, they met with IUSD Board Members, Superintendent Walker, District leadership, PTA leaders and others to learn more about education issues and priorities, IUSD’s budget, the LCFF and LCAP, Legislative Priorities and gain a better understanding of local and state governing.
