The San Dieguito School Board originally approved a new redistricting map<\/a>, but two community members are suing the school board with accusations of political gerrymandering and unfairly dividing areas with significant minority representation. Carol Chang from San Diego, and Lisa Montes from Solana Beach are being represented by attorney Corey Briggs in their lawsuit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nCrucial to this lawsuit is the assertion that the Brown Act <\/span>\u2014 the state\u2019s public transparency law \u2014 has been violated by the San Dieguito Board due to their failure to update their agendas to the district’s homepage. However, after Briggs suggested the board\u2019s violation of the Brown Act, all of the progress that the board made up until that point had been voided, meaning that the formerly approved map was dismissed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nOne conservative member of the school board, Maureen Muir, disagreed with the accusations of Brown Act violation. Muir also said in an email that, \u201cIt appears as if the teachers union-backed county school board will override the will of a locally-elected school board to meet their partisan objectives.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\nAfter two years of chaos revolving around COVID policy, San Dieguito\u2019s local school board appears to remain fractured along partisan lines. The San Diego County Board of Education must now decide on a final redistricting map by April 30th. In the meantime, the county board will hold three public hearings on April 6th, 13th, and 20th.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nPhoto Cred: Coast News<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
