Lisa Karahalios calls for iPad CCTP oversight committee to continue

March 5, 2014. Speaking at the CCTP Tech (iPad) Committee, Lisa Karahalios expresses disappointment in Dr. Vladovic's decision to shut down the ad hoc committee. "Given that this is probably the largest public works rollout of technology in schools in history, I think this committee should go forward, and it shouldn't just be an ad hoc committee, I think it should be an official committee of the board."

LAUSD's own facts demolish Deasy and Daily News' defense of iPad Profligacy

Repairs Not iPads

From KPCC

"Even life-cycle repairs such as roof or air-conditioner replacements will inevitably exhaust available bond funds. Officials estimate those repairs will run over $13 billion over the next fifteen years, much more than the remaining bond funds."

How can John Deasy and his stenographers at the Daily News keep saying we can afford "both" when they must be aware of simple fact mentioned above? There's not even enough money for necessary repairs. Deasy is so afraid of being confronted on these questions, that he's avoiding an interview with Univision.

None of this includes the funds needed for earthquake retrofits!

The only explanation is that Deasy and his well heeled supporters are placing Pearson plc's corporate profits above the safety and health of both LAUSD students and those educating them.

Join Repairs Not iPads today and fight for a LAUSD with student-centered priorities.

LAUSD's Deasy says kids can learn in these conditions, we say that's unacceptable!

This is a classroom for special education students in one of your schools. It might be exciting making billion dollar iPad purchases, but this is your responsibility too. No child should have go to a school that looks like this.
