"While this is encouraging and good news, it does not mean that BUSD or any other district has less responsibility to educate children like Gabriel in the most appropriate manner and environment. Berkeley has a long way to go before they can claim to be doing any such thing."
Strange comment here, who wrote this, maybe she's the kid's aunt or something. Sounds like a long litany of complaints, not a news (feature I guess) story at all.

She's not alone. And Dr. Lehman is right. Berkeley used to have a fine educational system. Then back in the early 70s, the far left BCA (Berkeley Citizens Action) swept into office and the city (including the school system) declined rapidly, as the BCA indulged in its thievery and bizarre social experimentation. I was there when they were sworn in at City Hall. When the oath got to the part about "all enemies foreign and domestic," they all laughed. Oh, the stories I could tell you...
