“Nowhere is the mismanagement of the Ravenswood schools more obvious than in the district’s failure to serve its most vulnerable children, its special education pupils. The district has been so remiss in providing the minimum services required by law that a federal judge who ordered improvements 18 months ago offered this terse description of the district’s efforts in April: “Abysmal.” “

This is a school district which historically has been in a poor community. The population has changed from a black community to a hispanic community where a cheap house now goes for $300K (nothing is cheap in Silicon Valley).
