At the August 28, 2009 meeting of the San Francisco Board of Education an agenda item for  $ 100K to be given to the San Francisco Education Fund/San Francisco School Volunteers for a study of parent involvement was pulled.  Commissioner  Sandra Fewer pulled the item to get more information.  Since then controversy has swirled around this study. Lisa Spinali the Executive Director of SFEF/SFSV joins me to explain the why’s and wherefores of this 100K.

On page two Caroline Grannan, San Francisco Examiner Columnist and blogger joins me to chat about her comfort level in this Board of Education action.
