LASD wasn't faced with spending $20M on lawyers vs $200M on real estate. They think they can use…Read More Raynor and keep the cost for one school down to $50M or so, but that will never be used by BCS. It will end up being either ruled illegal or it will be an albatross around the district's finances for years to come. They'll blame BCS for the stupid move.
But what is really important is that ongoing legal battles or not, BCS had agreed to accept the split if only $500K more were spent on getting Blach into shape. While the only firm committment was for 1 year, it was obvious that LASD could have come back and gotten that agreement set for 3 years, by which time all sorts of dust would have settled. That was a wise option, and by far the cheaper one. There can always be new lawsuits. What you need to worry about is this years, just like the facilities process for charter schools.

Just because there is no rule requiring something doesn't mean there's necessarily a rule forbidding…Read More something. Otherwise walking with shoes on would be illegal.
BCS has never, ever, ever agreed to "accept the split". That is a lie that the BCS regime and their sycophants repeat ad nauseum, but it's still a lie.
Earlier this year they crafted a counter-offer over which they ALL BUT PROMISED TO SUE over. They carefully worded it in such a way that would be 100% consistent with a lawsuit over their very own counter-offer.
In other words, BCS said, "if you don't accept this counter-offer that goes above and beyond the legally necessary facilities... we'll sue.... if you accept it... we'll sue anyhow". They think we're stupid. We're not.

Are you talking about having an associate teacher at each grade level or about the provision of a…Read More special education aide for each grade level? Either one is very different from LASD but if you mean both that's very interesting. The aides are compensated at lower hourly rates than the teachers, but in LASD there is not even 1 full aide per school aside from SDC aides. Egan has no aides and Blach only has 0.80 FTE of aide time.

Oh, there are different kinds of aides. I referred to the 1-1 personal aides above. The resources…Read More specialist certificated teachers at the LASD schools also work with aides and there are generally between 1 and 2 FTE of that kind of aide time at a school. Interestingly in this category Egan has 1 RSP and 0.8 classified time whereas Blach which has all the Jr High SDC classes not only has the staffing for that, but in the RSP area has 1.6 RSP teachers and 4.1 classified time as well. so more than SDC classes are concentrated at Blach.

Sorry, yes, associate teachers. These are fully credentialed teachers. It's excellent as there…Read More appears to be much more natural coverage for teacher absences (vs. substitute teachers), maternity leaves, and they can work as aides for 1-1 time as well as an excellent training opportunity for less experienced teachers - all rolled into one.
