Westchester Secondary Charter Sch. v. LA Unified Sch. Dist.
Annotate this CaseWSCS objected to the District's offer of classrooms and related space at Crenshaw High School and filed a petition for writ of mandate, seeking a peremptory writ ordering the District to comply with its obligations under Proposition 39, Ed. Code, 47614. The trial court denied the writ petition. Under Proposition 39, the District must “make reasonable efforts to provide the charter school with facilities near to where the charter school wishes to locate.” The court rejected WSCS’s contentions that the District did not make reasonable efforts to place WSCS near its desired location; the offer of space at Crenshaw represented facilities near WSCS’s desired location; WSCS was not entitled to a specific location of its choosing, only reasonable efforts to place it near its desired location; and the District did not abuse its discretion by placing WSCS at Crenshaw instead of two other schools.
