The Future Is Put On Hold

Steve Barr delays consideration of his new charter school scheme, announces plan to use Los Angeles firestorm crisis to save it from denial.

“Future is Now Schools-Los Angeles’ failure to timely comply with the reporting requirements that apply to nonprofit corporations raises concerns that the Petitioner chose not to comply with, or is unfamiliar with, specified legal requirements.”

– LAUSD Charter School Division

The LAUSD School Board held a public hearing for the proposed Future is Now Career Technical Education Preparatory on December 10, 2024. This meant it could have held a vote for this charter school during the January Board meeting. Instead, the Charter School Division held it until February, delaying its consideration until the last day of the timeline set by state law. Any unforeseen delay would have required agreement from the charter school to prevent it from automatically being authorized.
