The kiddos will not be happy with me for saying this, but thank goodness spring break is winding down. There's no break for school reporting:
- The Union-Tribune reports that a judge said that no, Helix High can't stop Grossmont schools from trying to revoke its charter -- at least, not yet. Grossmont is still weighing what to do after a Helix official violated its code of conduct.
- Also in the UT: Efforts to curb bullying seem to be working. And an editorial argues that the Obama Administration should focus reforms on more than just the worst schools.
- School board member John de Beck writes in SDNN that schools should start offering tangible rewards like cash for good behavior and grades.
- Poway schools may stop running buses to save money, the North County Times reports.
- The Los Angeles Times writes that Chinese government programs to help U.S. kids learn Mandarin have raised suspicions around Los Angeles, although there are a handful already operating in San Diego.
