JEANNIE OAKES - I UTTERLY AGREE (IT CANNOT BE STATED TOO MANY
TIMES!) THAT

'One of the tough-minded structural changes at the heart of the
plan (THAT) will transform California's K-12 schools is the
development of Opportunity to Learn Standards" that specify what
government agencies—the state and school districts—must provide
all schools.

'These standards spell out the educational essentials that many
California students now lack: a qualified teacher, a curriculum
aligned with the state's standards, enough texts and materials
for both classroom use and homework, clean and safe learning
environments and so forth.

'It's simply unthinkable that California doesn't have such
standards already.'
