KPCC's Larry Mantle this morning hosted Mike Stryer and Steve Zimmer on "Air Talk."
The two are vying to replace Marlene Canter representing District 4 on the Los Angeles Unified school board.
The 17-minute segment focused on district finances, their impact on the classroom, the candidates' endorsements, the superintendent's role, and reform (of course).
*Also noted, both candidates were asked at the end of the segment if they had children in the district. Zimmer stated he is not a parent. Stryer said he has two kids that "were at Marquez Elementary Charter School," a campus in Pacific Palisades that was one of LAUSD's first charters and is a California Distinguished School. Stryer did not add that his children, now beyond their elementary years, currently attend private schools.
