  1. Some questions that I hope you could ask that perhaps Ms. Eastin, having a statewide, “big picture” perspective on education might be able to address for a Davis audience:

    1. Some discussion and argument on this blog has centered on blaming the district for these problems. How common/bad are these education budget issues (like what we saw this spring) across the state? Also, do other districts also show equivalent declining enrollment?

    2. What difference do the programs proposed in Measure W make in terms of total student success? If we (as Davis voters) chose not to fund those programs, what might the Davis school district look like, w/ respect to student outcomes? What kinds of students would be affected the most for lack of these programs?
