For the 2025-26 school year, the projected enrollment for the Healdsburg Unified School District (HUSD) is just 1,000, according to a report from HUSD Superintendent Chris Vanden Heuvel, and with already declining enrollment the school board is interested in having a conversation about the possibility of allowing interdistrict transfers, a conversation that got tabled in 2019 due to wildfire and the COVID-19 pandemic.

The state of California prisons
For the last 15 years, I have been a volunteer in prisons, teaching convicted felons in the field of sociology and running self-help groups. Most of my students are “lifers,” men who have been convicted of serious crimes like murder, rape, or burglary for which they have received sentences of 15 years to life and much more. None of them are on death row, and most are now eligible for parole, having served their minimum sentences. Often, they have served far longer.
