WHBREM, the experts appointed by Superior Court Judge Paul Egly to st:udy

established in full compliance with the applicable laws of the State
of California as duly established under Califomia State Constitutional
provisions, and

ported the concept of strong local control and local accountabili~y
with regard to the government and management of this school system,
and
WHEREAS, this Board of Education is currently establishing a Citi.zens I Advisory

opportunities for all students in this school system, and upon the
improvement of the quality of education for all students, and
WHERFAS, California State Senator Alan Robbins has introduced to the Legisla-
ture a proposed State Constitutional Amendment which, if passed by the

the Courts or the Legislature which would mandate school desegregation

means of busing pupils across district boundaries, or through the dis-
solution or adjuotment of school district boundaries, and
