Sometimes I miss things in Bright and Early. It's true. Find something big that I skipped? Don't hesitate to send it to me at emily.alpert@voiceofsandiego.org. And now for your newsblitz:
- Should lunchtime be brought to schools by Kraft? We blog on a school board discussion over where ads could fit in schools -- if at all. We also blog on how San Diego Unified will seek a superintendent minus a professional headhunter. And if you want more gory details from the meeting, check out my Twitter feed.
- The Union-Tribune reports on early surveys for a parcel tax for San Diego Unified schools, which show that a temporary tax could garner nearly enough support to pass. After we blogged about some of those findings earlier this week, the county Taxpayers Association chief sent us this letter questioning whether the data is solid.
- San Diego Unified leaders have said that the schools still aren't out of Race to the Top, even though they didn't join the California bid for the money. Is that true? Well, mostly. It's the newest from our Fact Check blog.
- My esteemed coworker Adrian Florido looks at where the world champion Chula Vista Little Leaguers are headed now. That is, which high schools they're headed to now. Private schools might suddenly be in reach.
