State Delays Decision on Breakup Hearings
The state Board of Education on Thursday postponed making a decision on whether to hold local public hearings on proposed regulations governing bids to break up school districts.
The school board pushed back discussion of the controversial regulations to its November meeting, citing the need to review materials and hold further discussions.
On Wednesday, representatives of Los Angeles city schools, which are the target of a number of breakup proposals, argued that groups seeking to separate should be required to show they can comply with court orders on integration, special education and school funding.
