## Resource

San Diego schools are ditching screens for younger students next year, banning Chromebooks in transitional kindergarten and blocking YouTube and gaming sites across the district, with possible laptop time limits coming soon—pushed by parents demanding smarter tech policies and accountability. Meanwhile, a county proposal aims to protect food aid recipients from new federal work rules by funding community food drives. In Tijuana, water shortages from broken pipes and a drying Colorado River are forcing emergency shutoffs, prompting officials to study Oceanside’s water recycling success. And in San Diego, an investigation into the Otay Mesa ICE detention center reveals alarming reports of poor medical care, including seizures and pregnancy complications, sparking urgent questions about detainee health.
