Basically the plan was dead on arrival. The plan wasn't done following state law. |
The requirement is that priorities need to be established first, they need to be approved by the state school board, and then you go about doing a plan. You don't do it backwards, you don't develop a plan without the state school board first setting those priorities, and that was the fatal problem. |
This is a very, very important victory for schools in Eugene, but it's really only the first battle. |
