Brewer Headed For South Bay

Heads up, Westchesterians: LAUSD Superintendent David Brewer will be at Cowan Avenue Elementary School at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, hosting a meeting in the wake of what tipsters tell us was an acrimonious campus vote to join the district's new Innovation Division.

More commonly called iDivision, the reform initiative aims to give schools get more autonomy from LAUSD in exchange for increased accountability.

Teachers and parents alike must buy in to the plan with majority votes among both groups. The Cowan community greenlighted participation in iDivision but we've heard through the grapevine that it's been a polarizing issue there.
