Will Parents Ever Be Able to Pull the "Trigger?"

Hosted by

The so-called "Parent Trigger" has failed again. That's the name of a new law providing that parents of kids in a failing school can initiate reforms, from replacing half the staff to converting the school to a charter. The signatures of 51 percent of the parents are required. But first in Compton, then last night in the Mojave Desert town of Adelanto, elected school boards have rejected such efforts.
