Ever since school started, 18 first-graders from El Camino Real Elementary School have been going to school (virtually) every day in United’s Youth Room! Javier Berges, an El Camino Real bilingual first-grade teacher, has set up his online classroom downstairs. He and his wife, also an elementary teacher, have three school-age children, and their house lacked the bandwidth needed for everyone to be online every day at the same time. In early August when it was clear that public school would start online, I’d reached out to United educators and parents to see if there was any way for United to help by providing space. El Camino Real Principal (and United member) Jack Lain reached back and shared Javier’s situation. The rest is history.
