Last week the state Board of Education issued new regulations
governing the “parent trigger” law for struggling
schools. The CFT views the new regulations as an improvement
over the original poorly-crafted law, but finds the very concept
of the “parent trigger” to be a distraction from the central
issues facing public schools.
CFT’s EC/K-12 Council President Gary Ravani comments in
today’s San Jose Mercury News in an op-ed piece.
