He credited leadership in Rialto Unified School District including RUSD Superintendent Dr Cuauhtémoc Avila, Eisenhower High School Principal Dr Frank Camacho, and Kucera Middle School Principal Jennifer Cuevas for giving him the agency, through the District’s Strategic Plan, to be innovative with educating students and bringing educators together both in the RUSD and across the Inland Empire
“All of these leaders really give me the agency to do this work,” Davis replied “That’s the biggest component A lot of school districts don’t allow it I thank them because not everybody provides this type of leadership ”
Davis has been active in bringing together students and staff with educational roundtable programs held both in person and virtually during the last two years Davis has also presented at conferences on what is possible with the ethnic studies curriculum
Last February, he earned a Bridge Builders Award from the District for “excellence in equity & access toward students and community ”
“I’m proud to honor these educators for the truly extraordinary work they’re doing,” CTA President E Toby Boyd stated about the awardees
“There isn’t a student who goes unseen in the communities of these exceptional educators
Their individual commitment to inclusiveness and to celebrating every student’s uniqueness will have a lifelong impact on our students, as well as on our schools and our communities We’re inspired by these social justice warriors and proud to recognize their contributions with CTA’s prestigious Human Rights Awards ”
Davis was nominated for the award by Camille Butts Butts is a CTA African American Caucus Chairperson, the co-chair of CTA’s Racial Equity Affairs Committee (REAC), and a teacher at Grand Terrace High School in the Colton Joint Unified School District She attended some of the
roundtable events that Davis organized and was impressed with his ability, during the global pandemic no less, to bring together teachers, administrators and leaders from across the region
“It created a very powerful space for educators to come together,” Butts said “It was something that I didn’t think of as being possible, but he made it possible It was powerful I see that Rialto Unified is leading the way with ethnic studies (The RUSD) has a great model that others are aspiring to ”
Davis started his new position as a Program Specialist at Kucera Middle School in January and said he’s enjoying interacting with students across the school
“Now I get a chance to interact with all of our students,” Davis said “That’s the biggest blessing of the job I love interacting with them and checking in with them ”
His innovative work has not stopped In continuing to build on the connections from his previous school, Davis recently brought students from Eisenhower High School and Kucera Middle School together for a powerful African American roundtable discussion between students at both schools during Black History Month
“Eisenhower High School is extremely proud of Mr Davis for earning this State recognition through CTA,” stated Ike Principal Dr Frank Camacho “Mr Davis’ honor was due to recognizing the extensive and hard work that he put in for our Ethnic Studies at Eisenhower High School Mr Davis’ knowledge and compassion exude when he teaches, and his students, whom I have spoken to regularly, always comment on how engaged and informative he is in the classroom Thank you CTA for acknowledging his great classroom teaching skills ”
Immer sive Ar t Extrava ganza: Amazing Ar t Expo Enchants San Ber nardino with Disney, Star War s, and Anime Master pieces
By Adriana Lopez
Starting March 17 San Bernardino locals were treated to a three-day event at the Club Center on East Club Center Drive featuring art inspired by Disney, Star Wars, superhero comics, anime, and a wide array of fantasy pieces
Amazing Art Expo was started in Denver, Colorado, where curator John McIntire would collaborate with small galleries to display artists' work As the expositions grew in popularity, McIntire found himself apologizing to guests for long wait times
This eventually inspired McIntire to take the exposition on the road, traveling to a new city each month and giving fans across the nation a chance to meet the artists and get their purchased artwork autographed
The success of the event speaks to the talent of the artists, whose works are recognized by the studios they take inspiration from Among these artists is Christopher Clark, who can claim George Lucas as a fan of his work
“George Lucas had first right of refusal on Christopher's contract with Lucasfilm, meaning George Lucas got to see his work first and if he wanted to buy it he would get first right of refusal before it would be offered to the public,” McInrite said
Many attendees of the event have likely seen Christopher Clark’s work before the event On top of being able to boast George Lucas as a fan, Clark’s work is also displayed throughout Disney
parks These impressive career achievements have only propelled Clark’s development as an artist forward
“Working for some of the publishers I have like Lucasfilm and Marvel, and having to paint some of the titles has made me step up my game as an artist,” Clark said “I’ve had to improve my art a lot to be able to paint at the level these publishers want ”
Dominic Glover, who has worked with Marvel and Comic-Con, was also present at the event Guests may have seen Glover ’s work on the covers of Marvel comics or murals he created for Comic-Con
Glover reimagines iconic scenes from anime in vivid colors, a style, and a subject matter that catches the eyes of many guests as they walk through the event center
“There’s a term called sakura, it's the scenes or moments in anime where all the budget goes like everyone is working over time for that scene, I try to make sure each piece looks like that,” Glover said
The dedication that goes into Clark’s, Glover ’s, and the other 30 artists' work catches favor among the attendees as lines form to purchase the pieces Some are holding prints of Lord Voldemort sitting on a toilet, some hold canvases featuring Pokemon characters, while others browse through artwork featuring Studio Ghibli characters

Ramos bers, and the effects on recidivism in San Bernardino and Riverside Counties The audit is expected to be released in approximately six months
Supporters of the audit include San Bernardino County Sheriff Shannon Dicus, City of Redlands Interim Police Chief Rachel Tolbert, City of Rialto Police Chief Mark Kling, Sheriff's Employees Benefit Association President Grant Ward, San Bernardino Police Officers Association Vice President Jose Loera, Lauren Pettigrew Munzer, Crime Victims United Board Member, and Hispanic Coalition of Small Businesses Chairman Frank Montes
The Feather Alert, which became available in January, is a public notification tool to help law enforcement quickly notify the public about the disproportionate number of missing Native Americans and enlist their aid for timely leads to locate victims and prosecute suspects The California Highway Patrol activates the alert at the request of local law enforcement, and it works much like an AMBER Alert
Ramos said, "I am gratified that the governor approved this bill to help stop the violence afflicting California's Native American communities The Feather Alert will aid law enforcement and families in getting the word out quickly when a Native individual is missing or endangered by alerting the public in a broad and effective manner Creating an alert or advisory system was a top recommendation from tribal leaders in May to highlight this issue "
California has the highest population of Native Americans in the nation and is among the states with the highest rates of reported cases of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People
The Feather Alert has specific criteria that must be met before activation, including the missing person being an indigenous woman or an indigenous person, local law enforcement determining that the person is in danger, and information being available that could assist in the safe recovery of the missing person
According to the Sovereign Bodies Institute, only nine percent of murders of indigenous women in California have ever been solved The Feather Alert aims to stem the tide of unsolved cases and provide more immediate support when suspected abductions or other acts of violence occur against California Indian people who suffer a disproportionate number of those crimes
In California, the Feather Alert joins other special notifications overseen by the CHP, including the AMBER Alert, Blue Alert, Silver Alert, and general endangered missing advisory
Participants in the summit on Feather Alert implementation included tribal leaders from across the State, along with representatives from the San Manuel MMIP Youth Advocacy Group Law enforcement agencies that were present include California Highway Patrol AMBER Alert Coordinator Captain Ken Roberts, Merri Lopez-Keifer, Director of Native American Affairs in the Office of the Attorney General, San Bernardino County Sheriff Assistant John Ades and San Bernardino City Police Chief Darren Goodman

The NCAA basketball tournament has supplied us with yet another month of madness In a year where a 16 seed beat a 1 and a 15 seed made it to the second weekend, it only feels right that the final four this year is the first one to feature ever not feature a team seeded 1, 2, or 3 Instead, the 9 seeded Florida Atlantic Owls vs the 5 seeded San Diego State Aztecs and the 5 seeded Miami Hurricanes vs the 4 seeded UConn Huskies will be the two Final Four matchups With these games featuring teams very unfamiliar with each other, there is a lot to preview and prepare for before Saturday
What a ride it’s been for Florida Atlantic They won their first round game
C a d e n C e n t e r T he Final Four Full Of Sur prises
vs Memphis off a questionable no timeout call but haven’t looked back since They defeated 16 seed FDU in round two before defeating a gritty Tennessee team in the sweet 16 and a red hot Kansas State group in the elite eight What has got them here is what can give them a chance vs SDSU; the long ball Throughout their run FAU has been able to hit 3’s in an efficient and timely manner Continue this, and they can beat anyone
Have their jumpers fail however, and they could go out in an ugly fashion For San Diego State, they’re probably the best defensive team left in the tournament They beat a red hot Creighton team in order to get to the final four and have really given their opponents little to no window to beat them I believe that defense wins championships, and that is
Water Bill Assistance is Available at Community Action Par tner ship of San Ber nardino County
Community News
Community Action Partnership of San Bernardino County (CAPSBC) is helping residents with their water or wastewater bill(s) through its Low-Income
Household Water Assistance Program (LIHWAP)
LIHWAP is a federally funded program that offers a one-time payment, up to a maximum of $2,000, to help residents pay their current or past-due water or wastewater bills they have accrued There is no date restriction for when the overdue amount occurred
San Bernardino County households may qualify for assistance if:
Their total household gross income is at or below 60% of the State Median Income or a household member is a current recipient of CalFresh or CalWORKs
They receive service from a participating community water system or wastewater treatment provider (private wells and septic excluded)
Renters may also qualify if: Their water and/or wastewater bill is included in their rental payment, and they are past due on rent
The application for renters will require additional steps as they
must complete an agreement with their landlord to apply for the benefit amount
Residents with Disconnect & Shut Off Notices:
Applicants who are in danger of getting services disconnected, or whose services have already been disconnected, can submit the application as soon as possible with all the paperwork to be processed for immediate assistance
Qualifying Amount:
Households that qualify for LIHWAP could reduce their water or wastewater charges, or both if their bills include both services, by up to $2,000
Once an applicant is found eligible, a credit will be applied to their water and/or wastewater bill within 45 days or less CAPSBC staff will send a pledge to the water company or wastewater treatment provider with the approved amount, however, this does not always stop or prevent disconnections if the non-payment process has been too long
To schedule an appointment, San Bernardino County residents can call 909-723-1500
Applications can also be submitted via fax, email, in-person, or mailed in
why SDSU is my pick to go to the championship game
To me, Miami is officially a “tournament program” What I mean by that is they step up their game like no other when it comes time for the big dance They made an improbable run last year as a double digit seed and have done it again this time as a 5 seed
The Hurricanes ran through the gauntlet path of Indiana, Houston, and Texas to get here and as a result are as battle tested as anybody If they can continue to have that “it” factor, they have a shot to win
As for the UConn Huskies, there’s no team in the final four hotter than this group They absolutely obliterated their elite 8 matchup, Gonzaga, 82-54 in a game I went into believing that the win-
ner would become the champion I still believe in that statement I think the Huskies shut down the U and advance to yet another national championship where they will take down the winner of SDSU vs FAU
March Madness has provided us with yet another years worth of clutch shots and unforgettable moments It all will conclude in Houston, Texas when the Final Four arrives at NRG Stadium on Saturday
This will then be followed by the championship game on Monday where we could see FAU, SDSU, or Miami get their first ever title or UConn add another trophy to their collection
Bewar e of potholes, and r epor t them!
Community News
The vexing thing about potholes is that they are most likely to appear during the time of year when they are nearly impossible to fix Repair materials do not bond well, if at all, when it's cold and wet
The snow and the rain that has been abusing the mountain communities is also abusing the mountain roads, so many roads are showing signs of damage with new cracks and potholes Public Works crews are aware of the damage and will begin making repairs after the roads dry out
Until repairs can be made, motorists are encouraged to drive with caution, watch the road, keep in mind a shallow-looking puddle can actually be a deep puddle, and report pothole and other road issues by using the SeeClickFix app
You can download the app at Google Play or the Apple App Store Get more information at the Department of Public Works website
SeeClickFix is free and it allows county residents to provide the County Public Works team with pictures, videos, and descriptions of road issues
The app also allows residents to request cindering on local roads and report issues such as snow damage or cars blocking snow plows The app can also be used to report flooding and blocked storm drains
The County is helping to keep nuisance traffic in check by promoting its No Snow Play on the Roadway campaign to discourage people from heading to the mountains with plans to pull to the side of a highway to sled, make snowmen, and throw snowballs at each other
The County will leverage billboards and social media to make sure everyone knows that road-side snow play can be met with fines and towaways

Striving f or g r eatness: Fir st-generation CSUSB student on the path to
Community News
She can still hear it more than 15 years later: “Mexican girls like Ally are made for house cleaning
not college ”
Ally Bledsoe’s second-grade tutor had uttered those words to her after she had submitted a “sloppy” handwriting assignment “I know I was very young,” Bledsoe says, “but I will never forget when I was sitting there and told myself, ‘No matter what happens in my life, I will prove her wrong ’”
She did
In 2018, the same year she graduated high school, Bledsoe enrolled at Cal State San Bernardino as a first-generation biology major She will graduate with her bachelor ’s degree in spring 2023 and is on the path to become a pediatric oncologist
“It’s very intimidating and it’s very scary,” she admits “I will be the first doctor in my whole family I have nobody to look to, so it’s all on me But it’s also very exciting ”
In her freshman and sophomore years at CSUSB, Bledsoe worked four jobs to pay for school and help her mother with household bills, while also taking care of her grandmother, who has dementia “It was very hard,” she recalls “But I managed ”
Luckily, she was the recipient of the CSUSB S L Gimbel Foundation Scholarship, not once, but twice, at $10,000 each “It helped me out a lot,” she says, noting that she was able to put some into her savings for medical school
While a lot of the financial burden has been lifted, Bledsoe is still hard at work, waking up at 3:30 a m to catch
the 5:20 a m shuttle from Coachella to the San Bernardino campus every Monday and Wednesday
“Even though I am very tired, I know that it’s going to be worth it in the end because it will pay off,” says Bledsoe, who works in CSUSB associate professor Jeremy Dodsworth’s research lab “All the late nights and early mornings – it will pay off ”
Her dream of becoming a pediatric oncologist stems from her love of children
“Seeing life through a child’s eyes is unexplainable It’s pure, it’s magical, it’s beautiful,” she says, adding that cancer runs in her family, which is why she chose to pursue oncology
“I want to help children from all walks of life,” she explains “I want to show them that there is life during and after cancer because I know cancer is very ugly I want to find a cure for cancer so no child will have to lose their childhood ”
Bledsoe says part of her motivation comes from those who have doubted her, including her second-grade tutor “What about getting a husband?” some family members have even asked “A husband is not going to get me my MD,” she responds “I will ”
A tough childhood also influenced her commitment to succeed Bledsoe was born and raised in an area plagued with gang violence, was raised by a single mother in a low-income household, and had a troubled father who was in and out of her life
Despite her barriers, Bledsoe has always been determined to achieve her goals, not only for herself, but for her best friend – her mother – as well as for her future children and patients
“I want to give my mom a good life, the life that she deserves,” she affirms “I want to be able to give my future children the life that I have always wanted, and I want to be the best doctor I can be for my future patients That’s what pushes me to be great ”
And pursuing higher education was the path she knew she had to take “I breathe education I breathe my major I need it,” she says “I knew education was the only way out for my mother and I ”
But that does not mean she plans to leave behind the area where she was born and raised In fact, she hopes to someday open her own pediatric cancer clinic in the Coachella Valley since one does not exist
“I want to provide that here so the child does not have to change their entire environment as a result of cancer, and the parents do not have to worry about paying for gas and missing a lot of work to be there for their child," she says “At my clinic, I want to be able to help every child that comes I do not care if they cannot afford it I refuse to turn them away ”
For Bledsoe, kindness and understanding are the most important traits in a doctor, noting that many people think that being a doctor just means being smart
“Yes, it is being intelligent, but I also think it’s about how you are kind, how you have compassion, how you have empathy,” she explains “You understand their needs and do your research so you can figure out answers to their questions ”
Soon she will be one step closer to her dreams and walking across the stage at Commencement as a proud, firstgeneration CSUSB graduate, where
more than 80% of its students identify as first generation
“CSUSB, I think, is the home of firstgens,” she says “When I graduate, I will be graduating with a lot of firstgenerations, so it will be a milestone for all of us and we will all experience it together Even if I don’t know them, we are still connected by being firstgenerations ”
And while she continues a fulfilling academic journey, she is also currently experiencing a deeply personal one –a journey of forgiveness
“Recently my father passed away,” she reveals “CSUSB provided me with therapy, which in the Mexican culture, that’s looked down upon I was raised to keep it inside I will forever be grateful and will forever be indebted to CSUSB
“My father has caused a lot of turmoil in my 23 years of life and now that he is no longer here, I am figuring out how to forgive him,” she continues “Out of everything I have been through in my life, this journey will probably be the hardest one I never knew how strong I was until I had to come to terms with forgiving my father without receiving an apology I am forgiving my father because I deserve peace
“I have learned that my story may not have such a happy beginning, but that does not make me who I am – it is the rest of my story It doesn’t matter how I started What matters is how I finish I truly believe that where there is darkness, there will always be greatness ”

Transforming lives through education
By Eric Sandoval
In partnership with the IE Chamber of Commerce, the non-profit organization Think Together recently held its third annual Inland Empire Education and Workforce Readiness Summit on March 15, in downtown Riverside
The discussion for this year ’s summit centered on ways to improve education and workforce development in the Inland Empire, while focusing on increasing access to quality education, preparing students for the job market and creating equitable career pathways
The event welcomed over 200 guests from both the public and private sectors to collaborate In addition, the event featured Think Together alum, Diego Martinez who discussed his own success story and experience in Think Together ’s after-school program Hack Club
“After School programs like the ones I was able to participate in inspired me to dream big,” Martinez said as he spoke at the event
Martinez, who is now 20 years old began with Think Together during his Freshman year in high school
“I didn’t really have a clear sense of what I wanted to attain when it came to higher education,” shared Martinez He added, “Coming from a low-income family and title one high school, there weren’t too many positive reinforcements provided either ”
However, once he had the opportunity to join the vex robotics team offered by Think Together at his school West Valley, he was able to experience the engineering design process which he found interesting
Following his positive first experience with Think Together, Martinez was able to help get prepared for his future career and higher learning with workshops offered by the non-profit
“I was able to learn interview skills, develop my resume, and start looking beyond a typical career, and define where I want to go now which is the field of automotive within mechanical engineering,” shared Martinez
Following these workshops, Martinez joined Think Together ’s Hack Club as a student leader his senior year This position served as an opportunity for Martinez to start his school’s first computer coding club with the help of Think together
“By being able to engage with our students and teach them about one of the higher paying careers on the market today in computer science,
we were able to really set that bar and bring more equity and more S T E M careers into our lower-income neighborhoods and for our children,” Martinez said
Hack Club also offered him the opportunity to engage with the steering committee, which is a group of adult mentors who run Hack clubs at their site This led to the creation of the club’s hackathon event
The event allows all students to meet virtually and hack away at one issue for the entire day As part of the club, Martinez would co-lead its coding workshops
“Essentially how they(workshops) run, is they’re modeled to be easily digestible for students to understand how to program in the very essential sense,” shared Martinez
As part of these workshops, students were taught how to code in C-plus-plus, Html, Python and Javascript, which are some of the most common coding languages in the workforce today
“With Hack Club, I was able to gain great presentation skills in developing and presenting this information to our members,” Martinez stated One of his favorite moments as a Hack Club leader occurred when he was able to introduce Tommy Brewer, Think Together ’s deputy chief of innovation and partnerships at one of many Think Together events he participated in “Being offered opportunities outside of Hack Club with Think Together also provided good reinforcement and great professional development throughout my journey,” shared Martinez
One of Martinez’s greatest accomplishments with Think Together occurred when he was earned its Good to Great Scholarship, which is awarded to students that embody the organization’s mission of being odds-changers while persevering in school and being actively involved in their communities
“The Good to great Scholarship is amazing,” said Martinez “If there are any high school students that read this article, definitely apply to it if you’re eligible,” he added
In addition to receiving funding, Martinez was partnered with a mentor as part of the scholarship Martinez has used Think Together ’s resources as a way to develop and progress in his education and career, and as of now, he’s currently finishing up his final year at Mt San Jacinto, where he is hoping to transfer to a UC to pursue a major in mechanical engineering
