LAUSD has a 60% drop out rate. Oakland tried to teach "Ebonics" instead of English.
These districts do not need a turn around, they need a closure, then allow the hostages (the students) go to quality schools not owned and controlled by special interests (unions).
"Los Angeles, Oakland and Stockton unifieds are among the school districts that would get not a penny to turn around their lowest-performing schools, while most other districts San Francisco, Fresno and San Bernardino among them would get all or nearly full funding for all of their schools on the 113-school list."
Forget the technicalities, this is about the total collapse of LAUSD and Oakland, they can not be save. LAUSD is trying to save itself, by turning many of its government run schools into charter schools--more than 90% with union membership. Smart move.
Oh, the decision NOT to give LAUSD and Oakland NO money was not made in Washington, it was made it Sacramento.
