The Feds have a program to take over local school districts--by controlling the system.
To qualify for this money, State government must pass reforms, that give the Feds the right to set curriculum, accountability and results.
Thanks to the unions and the school districts they own, we will not get a quick Federal take over of our government schools.
"California applied for the federal grants in January, but the state was not selected as one of the finalists in the grant competition. The biggest single factor hurting the state's score was what application reviewers called a lack of buy-in by school districts and local teachers unions.
"Too many doubts are raised by only 46.5 percent of (school districts) signing" up for the program, wrote one of five reviewers who scored California's application."
we need to thank the unions for understanding that Washington should not run schools in Barstow, San Fran or Livermore. This is a good thing the unions have done--thanks.
