Sequoia Unified High School District does not recognize César Chávez birthday as holiday. In 2000, Antonio Villaraigosa, now mayor of Los Angeles, sponsored and secured a California law which made March 31st, César Chávezs birthday, a school and public workers holiday throughout the state of California meant to be honored in the same manner as President's Day or Martin Luther King Day. However, the majority of predominantly Latina/o school districts in California, including LAUSD, San Jose, and Sacramento, do little to nothing to honor the holiday.
