Assembly Bill 1577
Assemblymember Laura Richardson introduced AB 1577 which would allow Lakewood students, who reside within the Paramount Unified School District, to transfer into the Long Beach Unified School District without the hassle of having to get annual inter-district transfer permits. The bill was heard by the Assembly Education Committee on May 2, 2007 and, unfortunately we came three votes short of the six needed to send the bill to the Assembly floor. The good news is that the bill was held for reconsideration next year. In the meantime, we will continue our efforts to reach an agreement with Paramount Unified to allow students to leave if they so desire.Teacher Grants
During this school year, the Lakewood Schools Committee gave approximately $16,000 to 61 Lakewood teachers. This brings our cumulative total to $37,000 to 120 teachers over the past four years.
