Jackie Goldberg is shifting the discussion to whether charter schools are getting unfair advantages over district-run public schools.
Jackie Goldberg, standing with wife Sharon Stricker, takes the oath of office Tuesday as an L.A. school board member from retired Judge Teresa Sanchez-Gordon. Goldberg had an immediate impact.
Rodriguez, the co-founder of a charter school organization, was elected with millions of dollars in support from wealthy backers of charters. Goldberg won with funding and volunteers anchored by the teachers union, which built on momentum from a six-day teachers strike in January. Goldberg’s concerns arose minutes after the board began moving through its agenda. The item was $16 million to prepare space for charters operating on up to 79 district campuses. In all, about 11% of campuses host charters, according to the California Charter Schools Assn. Charters enroll nearly one in five district students.
Nick Melvoin said it was difficult for staff and families at a district-run school to see a charter move in with fresh paint and new furniture on only the charter portion of the campus. He suggested that both parts of the campus should get upgrades. “Both charter and traditional students are equal in value and should have equitable access to facilities,” she added.
