TAKING A TIMEOUT

Some parents in the Chino Valley Unified School District were so worried about a plan for the district to take over the special education classes run by San Bernardino County that they formed an organization and called a news conference. They felt blindsided by the district and complained that school officials did a poor job educating them about the proposed changes this fall. They were worried their kids wouldn't have the same teachers and that the district might not be ready to take on such a responsibility. That was Monday. By Thursday, district officials said they wanted to put off a takeover of the county-run classes for another year so they could consult with parents more. "Right now that seems like a reasonable approach," school board member Bill Klein said. "The bottom line here is everybody is interested or striving for the best interests of all affected parties."
