Good morning Redwood City!
I hope y'all had a lovely weekend and are ready to get back to it this week.
Last week, I told you a bit about redistricting and reminded you to read up on it. What I didn't mention but want you to know is that there is an upcoming Advisory Redistricting Committee meeting on Oct. 20 that will help you learn more about communities of interest and help you with the redistricting mapping software. So please go to that!
In other news…
Is your child in school today? Is your child's teacher in school today? Some aren't, and that's because a mandate requiring all school employees be vaccinated went into effect on Friday and some people are organizing a protest. As of this morning, we're not quite sure whether this planned protest is affecting schools in our area. What we do know is that staffing shortages are already plaguing nearby districts and some are worried that the vaccine requirements will lead to even more shortages.
What are your thoughts on this? Let me know. Or if you have a story idea about something completely different, let me know that, too!
Signing off,
Michelle
