California Demands Oakland Schools Make Sweeping Changes Over Antisemitism Complaints
[]
KQED News
Still, Sacks said the district didn’t investigate all of the complaints or conduct a thorough enough review, prompting the appeal to the state.
In October, the state found antisemitism in the district on multiple occasions, and last week, issued a new decision building upon those findings, and requiring new remedial measures.
CDE found that, in part, the appeal had merit, and prompted a slew of corrective actions, including: districtwide communications to families and staff condemning antisemitism; training for staff to prevent and remedy antisemitism; and a Board of Education discussion on the CDE’s findings.
Sacks said that she believes the decision doesn’t go far enough and plans to ask the state to require OUSD to revisit its own investigation and look into complaints it didn’t previously investigate fully.
Still, she said, it marked a “turning point for Jewish and Israeli students and employees in Oakland.”
