Plans change for troubled districts
- Share via
The state Board of Education canceled a Friday session that would have focused on 98 California school districts that have repeatedly fallen short of federally mandated improvement targets.
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger identified those districts as the target of his major school-reform initiative for 2008. The districts comprise a third of the state’s student body and include Los Angeles Unified.
The board now plans to hold three regional meetings to allow for greater input and to give school systems a chance to review recommendations state officials have yet to prepare.
