Position Papers
WHAT IS THE LVJUSD BOARD NOT TELLING YOU
After the school closures and making the district entirely neighborhood elementary schools, an imbalance in enrollments has been created in directed violation of LVJUSD Regulation 3221 which states the optimum enrollment level for elementary schools is 650.
HOW MUCH IS THE CHARTER SCHOOL REALLY GOING TO COST THE LVJUSD DISTRICT?
It has been stated the charter school will impact the district to the tune of $800-900K. However, the full facts show the impact is substancially less.
