Back to School - How Our City Supports Students
Manage episode 438994096 series 3569449
As students head back to the classroom, co-hosts Dr. Robert Franklin and Former Mayor Lee take a closer look at the partnership between the City of San Mateo and the school districts to ensure students have what they need to succeed.
From the Learning Education Assistance Program (LEAP) that provided essential resources during COVID-19, to safety improvements like reduced speed limits around schools and the expansion of crossing guards, San Mateo is committed to supporting students.
We also highlight the Police Activity League's Backpack Palooza, which served a record number of 450 families this year, and discuss how new affordable housing projects, like Kiku Crossing, are making a difference by offering free after-school programs for working families. Tune in as we explore the many ways local government is stepping up to help students thrive both inside and outside the classroom.
