Legislators eye grants for schools - San Bernardino County Sun


Legislators eye grants for schools - San Bernardino County Sun:

"While the state could benefit from the federal dollars given its current fiscal crisis, San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools Gary Thomas said he believes the teachers association should be involved in the conversation pertaining to data.

'If you're going to move in that direction, you're going to have to sit with the California Teachers Association and have thoughtful conversations and discussion about it,' he said.
'It's going to involve their members and the future of the teaching professions, so I think they're going to need to have a voice in that. And as I understand it, the teachers associations have been involved in those conversations.'"
