I pledge to support the agreement between the City of Santa Monica and the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District that provides significant city funding to the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District.
I will vote to affirm the agreement when it appears on the City Council agenda and to provide necessary funds at budget adoption.
I pledge to increase City support to the School District whenever the City's revenues will allow such an increase, as provided by the agreement.
City Council candidates were asked to sign the ‘CEPS Pledge’ to prove their support.
