If Phony Tony, the Mayor of LA, was really interested in students and quality schools, he would push for the end of the ownership of the schools by unions. "Rather than feel threatened by a new system, district leaders and unions should join the effort, present their own proposals, and take the lead in making these new schools the best in the city.
Flores Aguilar's measure is not designed to shut anyone out but to welcome new approaches and pursue models that are already known to work -- regardless of whether the plan comes from charter organizations, teachers or other reformers."
Why do the parents and students of Los Angeles need "permission" of a union to have quality schools? Who elected the unions to run and own government schools.
Phony Tony is not discussing the major cause of the failed LA schools--unions.
Until he does, the rest is window dressing.
