Dear LASD Community,

I am sorry to have to inform you that the Bullis Charter School has decided not to accept our interim offer to keep their K-8 program at Egan for the next two years while we work out a long term agreement and have instead chosen to return to court.  There was a hearing today on the issues and the court has set a schedule for yet more discovery and hearings.  Click here for the press release and LASD court filing in response to the BCS filing.

I am deeply disappointed, but we feel that our offer was more than generous and put BCS in a position to continue its success while we worked together to attempt to identify a long term solution that was both good for BCS and good for our community.

Now we will work with the courts and the outcome will be in the hands of lawyers and Judge Lucas.

For the next school year we will be implementing our original plan to put BCS at Egan and Blach schools.  The Board of Trustees will independently seek a long term location for BCS and seek your support in accomplishing that as soon as practical.

We appreciate your continued support and will do our best to keep you informed as events unfold.

Regards,

Mark Goines, President

Los Altos School District Board of Trustees
