For a Primer in School Finance...
...attend the Torrance Unified presentation "School Finance 101" tomorrow evening. Superintendent George Mannon and district business chief Don Stabler will lead the informational session on how public schools are funded and the various budget structures involved. In light of a $14-billion state deficit and a predicted $8.7 million hole in the TUSD budget come fall, it's a good time to take in the now-annual event.
The meeting starts at 7 p.m. Tuesday. It's being held in the district's board room, inside the Educational Materials Building at 2336 Plaza del Amo in Torrance.
