PLACEMENT OF NEW MAGNET SCHOOL CREATING DIVISION IN PICO RIVERA

During a regular Board of Education meeting this Tuesday at Pico Rivera’s City Hall, parents, teachers, students and community members voiced their concerns about the magnet school that the Board plans on opening at the closed elementary school, Selby Grove.
Despite the Board having voted on Resolution No.44-2013/2014, the decision to create a magnet school with an International Baccalaureate Diploma and Performing Arts focus, almost two years ago and hosted three public forums prior to the board meeting, this issue dominated the public comments section of the meeting’s agenda.
