LAUSD/Charters to share space

Los Angeles Unified School District has agreed to share space on its campuses with charter schools, settling a lawsuit by charter groups that said the district was violating state law. Harrison Sheppard in the Daily News.

Charter school organizations sued the district last year, claiming that it was refusing to follow Proposition 39, which requires school districts to provide appropriate space on their campuses for recognized charters.

Settlement talks over the past six months resulted in an agreement under which the district agreed to provide space, with several exceptions.
