The return to in-person learning is a relief to many parents and students after what has been a very challenging year. Although the move will hopefully restore a sense of normalcy for many in our community, we know that classroom learning has forever been changed.
Schools are continuing to adapt to what has been a rollercoaster year in education. Whether it was the pivot to remote learning, a return for small cohorts to campus, or the preparations for a return to in-person learning with new safety protocols, the needs for keeping students safe while learning are continually changing.
In response, the Santa Barbara Education Foundation created the Student Fund-a-Need campaign to support SB Unified students' most current critical needs. The campaign is currently raising funds for jackets to help keep students who don't have their own warm and dry so that they can concentrate on their studies.
