I spent the day at Bret Harte High School volunteering at the Academic Decathlon, and it was such a good reminder of why this work matters.
Seeing students step up to interviews, speeches, and tough academic challenges is genuinely inspiring. Events like this don’t just recognize high achievement, they show what happens when students are engaged and supported.
Every student deserves a chance to feel connected to their school, whether that’s through academics, athletics, arts, music, or another program that helps them discover their strengths.
This is the work I care deeply about, continuing to create and expand opportunities for students across Calaveras County.
