So who could be the next Los Angeles schools superintendent? |
The search for the next superintendent to lead Los Angeles' public schools moves into high gear this week as the school board starts to interview and discuss candidates Monday and Tuesday. The process is confidential, and it's not clear that anyone has the inside track. Still, advocates who have influence with L.A. Unified's elected Board of Education are pushing certain names. |

Teachers, how do you pay for school supplies? |
Tight budgets aren’t new in schools, but how teachers pay for their supplies continues to evolve. KPCC’s arts education reporter Carla Javier is looking into this, and we're turning to you for your insights. Teachers, please tell us where you work, what you teach, and how you fund your lessons and materials. Do your schools and districts provide all you need, or do you tap into your own funds or outside sources of funding to bring lessons and materials to your students? |

Governor wants millions of working-class Californians to go to college online. Not everyone is sold. |
Governor Jerry Brown is ramping up his campaign to convince legislators to fund a new, wholly online community college, arguing that millions of working-class Californians will then be able to take skills-building classes. But not everyone is sold on the idea that more virtual-only classes will solve problems for Californians struggling to access the job training they need to obtain higher-paying work. |
