The League of Women Voters of Alameda are sponsoring an evening with Alameda Unified School District (AUSD) Board President Margie Sherratt and Superintendent Kirsten Vital. The pair will discuss the achievements and challenges in Alameda’s public schools, from facilities and funding to curriculum and student achievement.

Sherratt and Vital will also touch on the current facilities master plan, the potential 2014 facilities renovation bond measure, the new Common Core standards and the state of California’s new school-financing system. A question-and-answer session will follow their presentation. The presentation will take place from 7 to 9 p.m., next Thursday, March 27, at the Community Center of Harbor Bay Isle, 3195 Mecartney Road, next door to Temple Israel.
