L.A. teachers will try to win administrative control of their schools

From The Los Angeles Times: A plan to let outside groups bid for control of dozens of long-struggling and new local campuses has prompted groups of teachers from inside the Los Angeles Unified School District to seek control of their schools. At every location up for bid -- 12 existing schools and 18 new campuses -- teams of teachers and the L.A. teachers union are trying to decide what to offer students and parents and what they would require of them and of themselves.
