Dave Gordon wants his stranglehold on SCUSD codified by state law.

The county superintendent defended his office’s oversight as district leaders questioned its support and rejected its latest proposal.

The very idea that the state might step in to mange discussions between the Sacramento County Office of Education (SCOE) and SCUSD has the Bee editorial board in a tizzy as usual. It appears that the deal the district made with SCTA could be brought forward again in the future.

State Superintendent Tony Thurmond endorsed the recently struck down deal and threatened to intervene over the county office's authority.

I'm not sure where this leaves the district. The appeal was rejected, but SCOE was warned about interfering with district efforts to avoid insolvency.

State superintendent also questions county Office of Education’s fiscal action — and warns state could assume oversight if problems worsen.

The county has rejected the district's agreement with SCTA. I think David Gordon would look on SCUSD going into state receivership as his greatest accomplishment.

The county’s fiscal adviser reversed the board’s approval less than a day after trustees backed the agreement.

Sadly, other cost cutting measures will include the cancellation of the 6th grade science field trip. When my kids were in school, this was a big focus of the school year, including lots of student fundraising.

Board members unveiled an updated plan to stay afloat and avoid state intervention during a special meeting Thursday evening.

Sacramento City and SCTA reach an agreement that will help the district's finances using teachers' benefit reserves.

The agreement aims to address the district’s historic budget deficit and help prevent a state takeover.

The County Board of Ed voted to renew the Highlands Charter that Twin Rivers had revoked. They actually faulted Twin Rivers for a lack of oversight. That oversight costs a district money, and charters contribute only a small fraction of it. Meanwhile every charter school takes money away from district students.

Highlands got a second chance after a state audit found several infractions and school board members moved to shut the schools down.

What does state receivership mean for parents and students?

If Sacramento City Unified were to receive a loan from the state, impacts could include layoffs and deep cuts to programs.

Once again a group of East Sac parents is ready to press the district for a neighborhood high school. Their focus is on the two neighborhood middle schools campuses. But what if the Sac High campus became available?

Families sent a message to officials this week, with ideas for how to maintain stability for their students in the short and long run.
