A lot is going on in Los Angeles Unified today, what with sources saying Superintendent David Brewer will announce this afternoon that he may step down.
(The district just issued a release that could not be less descriptive: "Los Angeles Unified School District's (LAUSD) Superintendent David L. Brewer, III will make a statement.")
Tomorrow's regular board meeting, which will come after a closed session where Brewer's contract is up for discussion under the label "Employee Discipline/Dismissal/Release," is sure to be a scene. Coincidentally, one of our biggest local district issues is up for a vote on Tuesday as well.
That's the proposed high school campus near Angels Gate Park, which has been opposed by many neighbors in the surrounding area. That item won't be heard until later in the meeting. Several San Pedrans are scheduled to speak, but many say it's a forgone conclusion that the campus will be approved.
If you want to go -- and witness LAUSD history being made! good times! -- the meeting begins at noon. The Pedro schoo is Item 10, and may not be heard until after 4 p.m. Agenda PDF.
