Beyond public schooling, Semillas advocates for the internationally recognized rights of children, and Indigenous Peoples as proclaimed by the United Nations through cultural relevance and community empowerment across the continent. Semillas del Pueblo is a 501(c) 3 non-profit indigenous educational organization.
As Los Angeles' first public International Baccalaureate World Schools, Semillas Del Pueblo Community Schools (Semillas Del Pueblo) enrolls over 400 students in our Kinder-12 continuum of learning. Semillas is a community-based, educational non-profit organization led by Indigenous Mexican educators in Los Angeles, California.
Co-founded by Indigenous Mexican educators born in Mexico, Semillas embodies a dream of an entire movement, the Chicano Movement - for an alternative education capable of fostering dignity in our children through autonomous intellect and knowledge. Moreover, Semillas represents a community-based response to the international and local call for Indigenous education guided by the UN-DRIP as a model for decolonization by Indigenous Peoples across the continent. The Semillas co-founders arose from humble beginnings, consistently committed to sacrifice, turning the privileges of education into the promotion of a generational struggle on behalf of one's People, and the whole of humanity.

LACOE Board member Doug
Boyd Calls Equal Rights
for Transgendered Students "against the laws of God and nature."
"It is just fundamentally wrong."
- 9.9.2013
The day before LACOE Board member Douglas Boyd attacked the citizenship status of Semillas school founders, he was busy promoting his homophobic views in his hometown.

LACOE Board member Doug Boyd Opposes Civil and Education Rights for Students and Educators
Doug Boyd accuses gay teacher of violating morals clause because teacher married and "spread it all over the school" 9.9.2013

Obviously, the concept of equality is lost upon LACOE Board member Doug Boyd. So when Mr. Boyd questioned the citizenship of Semillas del Pueblo's founders, it just a natural reaction of bigotry. Should someone so willing to publicly denigrate our students be allowed to serve on a public board?

LACOE BOARD MEMBER, DOUG BOYD, REPEAT OFFENDER OF THE POLITICAL REFORM ACT
| Click to download |
We have just discovered that LACOE Board member is considered a repeat offender of campaign finance laws with special considerations considered by the Fair Political Practices Commission to be "Aggravated". As recently as 2010, Doug Boyd was fined for repeated a nf flagrant offenses that should put any politician to shame. The problem is that Boyd is not a politician. As an undemocratically elected member of the LACOE Board of Education, he acts as though he is accountable to no one.
