Dr. John Fernandez compares Roosevelt HS, run by Education Management Organization (EMO) Partnership for Los Angeles Schools (PLAS) to it's rival public school run by a publicly elected school board. PLAS is a privatization venture of Richard Riorden and Antonio Villaraigosa and has been "run" by non-educator flunkies including Marshall Tuck and Joan Sullivan.
This must have been a very difficult piece for Dr. Fernandez to write, given that he taught at Roosevelt for over three decades. Fortunately for him, most of that time was when the school was still run by the public instead of by an unelected 501c3 board with business bankers like Marshall Tuck at the helm.
