Teacher: Override impact on class sizes, technology game-changer

By Leonard Ybarra 

As a 13-year MUSD employee, I can attest that the only constant has been change. MUSD has consistently embraced this challenge in order to meet the unique needs of students and the community.

The last few years with an override in place have been especially impactful. We have gone from days of 36 students in a second grade classroom with zero technology, to class sizes in the 20s with technology available for all students.

MUSD has proven their desire to meet the needs of 21st century learners in the digital age. Continuing the override makes sense for our district, our community and most importantly, our students.
