Kelly Clark Completes Cross-Country Ride!

Saturday, July 17th, 2010

On behalf of the faculty, parents, community, and especially the students of Harvey Milk Civil Rights Academy and across the country, we congratulate our fifth-grade teacher Kelly Clark and her team at WE RIDE for completing their 3,200 mile bike ride across the United States just hours ago. We’re proud to announce they arrived at Washington Circle Park in Washington, DC today — July 17, 2010 — at 4:35pm Eastern time.

WE RIDE 3000: The Early Days

WE RIDE 3000: The Early Days

It was 44 days ago that Ms. Clark embarked on the ride with much fanfare from the school yard on the last day of school, June 4th. She considered the long, winding, and critical journey a matter of urgency to bring awareness to public education across the country. Along the way, she and her team kept in touch with us via text message, Facebook posts, pictures, and the WE RIDE blog.

At times exhausted, bruised, and in pain, Ms. Clark would always pick herself back up and ride on when she considered the importance of the mission of public education. “We made sure to keep focused, to smile, to appreciate this beautiful Earth, to be kind to all those we met,” says Clark, “Public education, well it seems this ride is needed. There is so much work we need to do…everywhere and together.” Yesterday, she was honored by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in Pelosi Statement on San Francisco Teacher’s Cross-Country Bike Ride for Public Education:

Kelly Clark and the “We Ride 3,000″ team have embarked on a cross-country journey to support our nation’s public schools. As they travel, they are meeting with people across the nation to raise awareness of the value of our public school system. San Francisco public school students are fortunate to have Kelly Clark riding for their future. … We have a moral responsibility to educate our children, give our young people the tools and skills to compete in the global economy, and raise a new generation of well-prepared students to meet the challenges facing our nation. Congress must take further action to ensure that America’s students do not pay the price for the recklessness of Wall Street.

Bravo, Ms. Clark and team, for your great work on behalf of a brighter future for public education and for our children. We are all so proud of your incredible, inspirational work. Just one small request from us: Could you please take the plane home? School’s starting soon and we NEED YOU!

If you’d like to donate to the WE RIDE 3000 team’s flights to bring them home, please visit their Paypal account.

WE RIDE: Ms. Clark Rides 3000 Miles for Education!

Saturday, May 8th, 2010

We’re less than one month away from the start of WE RIDE, a campaign to bring awareness to Public Education in America.

Started by our very own educator and activist, Kelly Clark, the campaign has grown rapidly to include a national network of teachers, parents, and students.

The bicycle ride will be a 3200 mile cross-country journey. Along the way, riders will collect stories, ideas and experiences. Their goal is to create a collective movement for equity in public education.

Join us in sending off Ms. Clark and the others with great support — visit http://www.weride3000.com/ to donate or for more information!
