    Former admiral David Brewer is now the former Superintendent of Los Angeles Schools. Last week, Brewer said he'd step down before the end of the year. Today, the elected School Board picked his top deputy to replace him. Ramon Cortines will take a position he once held on a temporary basis. We get an update on today's decision from LAUSD Board President Monica Garcia.
