we wish every single school-aged child in san francisco would use our wonderful san francisco public schools but when you can't hire enough teachers to be able to have a qualified teacher in every classroom, then that's a problem. so i do think that the city takes some responsibility in this. our families can't live here. our teachers can't live here. our paraprofessionals can't live here and every time a eusf member comes to the board of education and says i can't live here, i have to move, i want to tell them, go to city hall and tell them that, because that is not our jurisdiction, this is your jurisdiction. the housing issue is your jurisdiction. i don't know if you realize our teachers can't ard $5,000 a month for rent. they are a -- they don't serve a capitalistic model, they serve the children of san francisco. and that is noble work and that is hard work and by offering -- i would love to give them a 300 percent raise. we just don't have the funds to do it. but i want to be honest that even if we did, they still couldn't afford to live here. this is a really expensive city. t
