You can calculate the interest rate from the chart of the next page (page 31 in PDF). The principalRead More is shown as dropping each year, for 2012 $151,303. The interest paid also drops, in this case by $7303 for an effective interest rate of 4.826% I am wondering if LASD owns some other property in LAH, since the lease to Waldorf would have to go for more than 30 years in order for the lease-leaseback lease to end before it is up.

Happy Father's Day everyone. Enjoy the day with your kids. Since that doesn't apply to me, I'mRead More going to keep digging up minute facts about how the district manages its facilities. I'm sure I'll dig up something to spin around out of context, distraction, or to ramble. So stay tuned!

Now that Raynor specifically has been ruled out, I am re-posting this article which had previouslyRead More included many images of the Raynor site. The thoughts it contains are still applicable, as Raynor was just an attempt at saving money on a new site, purportedly one of the lease costly ideas LASD Board members could locate. The new home of the article is here: http://losaltos.patch.com/groups/lasd-faciliites-growth-issues-discussion/p/lasds-plan-for-new-campuses_8265249b

Oh and they also take a spelling of "its" and put [sic] after it because they think theRead More possessive pronoun is spelled it's which is a common mistake. :) Since they cannot spell, they must be wrong.

LASD wasn't faced with spending $20M on lawyers vs $200M on real estate. They think they can useRead 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 forbiddingRead 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 aRead 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.
David May 31, 2013 at 01:12 pm
Oh, there are different kinds of aides. I referred to the 1-1 personal aides above. The resourcesRead 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 thereRead 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.
