At their regular meeting on Jan. 16, the Board of Trustees for the San Lorenzo Valley Unified School District received preliminary information on the feasibility of converting the mostly vacant Redwood Elementary School on Hwy. 9 into a “work force housing” development for teachers.
A second attempt to propose a new charter middle school within the San Lorenzo Valley Unified School District fell short, as the petition was denied again last week.
After being denied in March, Nicky Ramos-Beban, executive director of Integrative Leadership Academy, with the support of several parents and teachers, submitted a revised proposal to build a new independent charter middle school as part of the San Lorenzo Valley Unified School District. The SLVUSD board of trustees heard public comments on the petition at a board meeting on June 13.
