SF Guardians Advocate for Algebra Restoration

A grassroots alliance called the SF Guardians is advocating for the restoration of eighth-grade algebra in San Francisco's public schools, following a state-level victory against a recommendation against Algebra I. The SFUSD's decision to remove eighth-grade algebra in 2014, aimed at closing the minority achievement gap, resulted in negative outcomes. The push for algebra reflects parents' resistance to decisions made by school boards, administrators, and teachers unions.
