MENDOZA v. LOS ANGELES PARENTS UNION Part I
Romero Act, which provides for the transfer of substantial power from the Los Angeles Unified School District Board of Education to the LAUSD superintendent, grants mayor authority to ratify appointment of superintendent, and provides for the transfer of complete control of three low performing high schools and their feeder schools from board to a partnership led by mayor, is an unconstitutional attempt by legislature to overrule LAUSD voters' determination that their board is to be elected rather than appointed, and to transfer authority over part of the school system to entities outside of the public school system.
