According to the Chronicle, less than 12% of the students can read at their grade level and under 4% are proficient in math.

Educators like Glassbrook Elementary teacher Tiger Craven-Neeley raised concerns over the material but they were ignored.

Hayward Unified School District Superintendent Jason Reimann actually defended the contract and insisted that it was successful because attendance has gone up almost 20%.
