My principal, Esther Soliman and I were interviewed by LAUSD School Board President Monica Garcia about pilot schools, small public schools with autonomy over budget, staffing, curriculum, governance, professional development, and scheduling. Some people confuse us with charter schools, but unlike some charters, we have no application process, admissions criteria, or extra requirements for maintaining enrollment status. I've met people who work at charters that kick students out if they don't maintain a C-average, or if their parents don't fulfill a minimum number of service hours. We can't implement these types of policies, and work through students personal and academic struggles to produce the most successful outcomes that we can.
