CORE WAIVER VIDEO: The California Office to Reform Education explains it all for you …or what if seven superintendents formed their own school board and reported directly to the US Dept of Ed?

BY SMF FOR 4LAKIDSNEWS

16 May 2014  ::  Last week at the PTA convention the California Office to Reform Education – composed of the superintendents of a coalition of districts operating under a special accountability system to US Dept of Education for No Child Left Behind  (and entirely different from that of the rest of the state of California ) did a bit of parent outreach. The seven districts in the group are Fresno, Long Beach, Los Angeles, Oakland, San Francisco, Santa Ana, and Sanger.

At the meeting the CORE CA folks did some preliminary outreach to explain the CORE Waiver.  The conversation was meaningful and informative  …and very preliminary. 

And as part of the follow-up they asked that the following video be shared with interested parents.
