"The first week of November isn’t one we’ll soon forget in Ventura County. On the same morning we were digesting the results of the bitterly contested national election, we woke to howling winds and hoped there would be nothing to spark a fire while the Santa Anas blew.

Dr. Morales goes on to say, "The Ventura County P-20 Council is another example of what makes our area so unique. The council is made up of key decision-makers in education, government, business, and the nonprofit sector who work to expand educational opportunities and address issues facing our schools. Earlier this year, P-20 partnered with Housing Trust Fund Ventura County to explore solutions to the housing affordability crisis that’s making it hard for schools to recruit teachers and other employees."
