School registration question

Heyyyyy…. So My daughter will be enrolling in Kinder this coming August, the thing is my MIL literally lives right across the street from an elementary school. And she is also my child care. She watches my kids from 8-5 while I work. So of course it would make the most sense to enroll her at the school near my MIL since she’ll be doing all the pick ups/drop offs… and my husband is a jr. He has the same name as my FIL. So my question is, could we just enroll her and use my in laws address since my hubby and his dad share a name? Will that fly under the radar? Or does CUSD actually go out and check if kids live at the address they were registered with? And if they do check and we get caught would they force her to transfer to her home school mid school year or would they at least wait for the next school year to transition? I’m just so worried. I know it’s wrong to try to cheat the system that way, I want to do the right thing and request a transfer but I’ve heard they are so hard to get one and I know having my daughter right across the street will just make things so much easier on my MIL. She already does so much for us I would hate to have to ask her to drive across Clovis to pick up my daughter from school when there is literally an elementary school right there!! Anyway, any insight would be helpful. I’m at a loss as to what to do. I know it’s wrong to lie but it doesn’t feel so bad considering my daughter is at my in laws house Mon-Fri 8-5 anyway. She’s at their house more than our own house anyway since we both (her parents) work full time 🤷🏻‍♀️

Protests, demonstrations, etc?

Hello. I was wondering if there are any sort of protests or demonstrations of any sort going on in the area as well as any other community-centered things. I’m aware that there is some sort of community/demonstration(?) thing on the 29th in Fresno, but that is all I’ve seen. Also, if anyone would like to direct me to a site where they organize such things that is more than welcome. Thanks!

Growing Youth Ultimate Frisbee(Middle or High School Parents/Students Please Read)

Central Valley Ultimate(the local ultimate frisbee organization) is looking to expand and grow the sport of ultimate frisbee here in the Central Valley. The best foundation to do so is at the youth level. There is one high school team here in Fresno that participated in the Mixed California High School States tournament last fall and have 3 more tournaments planned this spring. However over the next few years we hope to grow and have more HS programs in the valley to play each other. As of now we have to travel to the Bay for opportunities to play other youth teams. If there are any middle or high school parents or students interested in learning more about organized youth ultimate frisbee opportunities we’d love to have you out to a practice to get a taste of this amazing sport. Feel free to reach out here, check out centralvalleyultimate.org or email centralvalleyultimate@gmail.com

PAID Interview Opportunity - Farmers in the Central Valley

Hi everyone. 

I’m a senior at the University of Edinburgh having recently returned from my junior year at UC Santa Barbara. For my undergraduate thesis, I’m conducting research on how immigration policy impacts the Californian agricultural industry, with the ultimate aim of clarifying whether farm size leads to being disproportionately impacted by immigration policy.

As part of my research, I’m looking for farmers in or around the Central Valley who would be interested in participating in a short interview conducted online to share insight on labor practices, their views on immigration policy, whether their daily operations have been impacted as a result and how they believe this to change in the near future, among other things.

It’s important to note that identities will be anonymised, data will be stored securely and deleted after analysis and that participants will have the ability to withdraw themselves from the project at any time. As a result, participation by interview yields no risk to you whatsoever. As a way of thanks, participants will each be entitled to $20 via payment method of their choice (it isn’t much, but it’s out of my own pocket and is all I can offer :) ).

If you are a farmer, or you have friends and family who are farmers and might be interested in participating in a project like this, please do not hesitate to DM me or comment below and I will reach out. Thanks so much!

How do I get a job with a Information Systems Degree in the central valley?

I was born and raised in the central valley(Porterville-Visalia area to be specific) and have been working in AG since I was 13 years old. From picking oranges to working in packing houses and now working at a juice plant. However I have always had an interest in technology and have started to pursue a degree in Information Systems. I am one semester away from achieving my associates and hopefully 2 years away from my bachelors(I'm 19). The issue is, no matter where I look, all jobs are AG related and hardly ever tech related. I have searched the regular job seeking sites such as indedeed, LinkedIn, ZipRecruiter,ect. But all jobs require at least 2 years of experience and minimum a bachelors. I do have 4 months experience of a IT internship at a school district and a 2 month internship at a cybersecurity company. It is difficult to be on this hunt while working full time and also being a student. I have turned down a promotion from my current job so I can focus on my studies but its starting to burn a little after not seeing much hope for a good job here in the central valley. I am hoping to reach someone with a job in tech who could give me some advice. Thank you and god bless.

CBP/ICE activity

I have seen a bunch of screenshots and blurry pics in whatsapp groups of BP vans stopping vehicles and making arrests today, but can’t tell what is true and if there is targeted activity or just a blanket sweep. Are other agencies working with them?

Anyone know what’s going on?

What’s it like being a conservative in CA?

Hello! I was born and raised in Iowa and currently work outside sales for a nationally based company. I truly believe in our product and enjoy what I do but have now come to the conclusion that my current territory does not have the population base to support my goals. There is an opportunity in Modesto with the same company that would offer a larger customer base with an established dealership.

With the being said, is Modesto a good place for a conservative single [28M]? I really enjoy the outdoors and lifting weights so, with the mountains being just 2 hours away it sounds fairly attractive. At the end of the day if I could join a gym with a great community and find a girlfriend to enjoy the outdoors with and has similar values I would be super happy.

Please let me know if these are reasonable expectations for the Modesto area. Thanks in advance!!
