Dividing L.A. School District
- Share via
As a Valley parent in favor of establishing a San Fernando Valley school district, I am distressed to learn that Roberta Weintraub has expressed her desire to lead this transformation (Jan. 20). Weintraub, a Nixon Republican, seized a seat on the LAUSD board as a one-issue (anti-busing) candidate. She then proceeded--along with her other inept colleagues--to preside over the near fatal destruction of what was a thriving school system.
Weintraub is now changing her political party and fixating on another single issue to revive her deflated career. No thanks. I implore her to retire and stay retired. Her kind of leadership we don’t need and don’t want.
