Lantz said the pandemic exacerbated mental health issues and socioeconomic disparities that can impact student learning. She said the district has also struggled to retain teachers because they are underpaid and overworked.“As leaders and parents, we must be models of the constructive civic discourse, resiliency, and optimism we aim to instill in our students,” Lantz said."We also need to actively counter the stigma around mental health through programs that connect with students.

Ortega, a retired economics professor, said that while teaching, she learned that college students have “a critical learning deficiency” that results in a lack of problem-solving skills.“In short, we need to give students opportunities to express themselves and to use the knowledge they learned,” Ortega said.
