Welcome to my page! The story on my website will cover the decline in student enrollment in San Diego County public schools. I chose this topic because of my interest in education, its pathway to personal growth/career opportunities, and its innovation/adaptability to different communities. In recent years, due to less funding for public schools, an increase in the number of schools in San Diego County has led to their closure. With these closures, educators are struggling to live where they work and are losing job opportunities. One of the main effects of this issue stems from the rising cost of living in San Diego. 
Those who may be interested in this story topic are parents searching for educational affordability, educators planning to work in public schools in the San Diego Unified School District, community members invested in educational accountability, and leaders/elected officials who make decisions on student and educational staff policies. In this story, you will learn about why public schools are receiving less funding, how it affects student learning, and why educational staff are being laid off. As well as why the rising cost of living has been the primary reason behind this issue.
