On Monday, May 6th 2013, the San Francisco Youth Commission had an off-site meeting at the Ernest Ingold Boys & Girls Club. This meeting was directed towards Education issues, specifically credit recovery options for the upcoming school year. We discussed & looked at the data on the Class of 2014 & how many students are off-track to graduating. Also how the new A-G requirements come into play with this issue. That's why there are many options for students to make up credits, online & in a classroom. There was also a conversation on the new school meals in SFUSD schools. The Student Nutrition Services came to get some input from the Youth Commission, whether it's an improvement or if there still needs to be changes made. Overall, it was a very informative & productive meeting. It was also nice to have the Youth Commission host a meeting within the community so that the public could come & share their thoughts on what's being discussed. HOORAY FOR YOUTH VOICE & REPRESENTATION!
