Once regarded as the nation's best public education system, California finds itself in disarray when it comes to solving the various crises in education facing this great state. The problem has extended beyond the classroom into the workforce whereby California corporations are unable to find qualified employees.
Town Hall Los Angeles in partnership with the Public Policy Institute of California (PPIC) present a panel discussion to help the consumers of education - parents and students - understand how decisions are made and how to best implement change.
Panelists include: Roy Romer, Superintendent, Los Angeles Unified School District; Ronni Ephraim, Chief Instructional Officer, LAUSD; John Sonstelie, Professor, Department of Economics, UC Santa Barbara and Senior Policy Fellow, Public Policy Institute of California; Caprice Young, President & CEO, California Charter Schools Association. Moderator: Adolfo Guzman-Lopez, Education Reporter, 89.3 KPCC-FM.
