Mission: Meeting our members needs by consistently providing quality, cost-effective
and innovative risk management programs and services.

This JPA consists of 69 member districts and charter schools governed by a Board of
Directors consisting of one representative from each member district. The Board
meets twice each year, and a board-elected nine-member Executive Committee meets
monthly. Through the JPA partnership, districts and charter schools can purchase
economical insurance programs which include loss control services and safety training.

Why were there two
representatives from
Fallbrook in December 2007?

Tom Anthony was fired from
Fallbrook Union High School
District in late 2007, but he
remained on the board.

It seems that Fallbrook is
favored because its officials
are loyal to SDCOE-JPA.

NOTE:
This is not the official SDCOE-JPA website. This is a copy, created because the SDCOE-JPA has a tendency to
break links to its web pages, even though they are public records.

SAN DIEGO EDUCATION REPORT

Orange County
Joint Powers
Alliance Funds
Appeal

of Parent Won Due
Process Case Against
Huntington Beach
Union High School
District
4/2006

Access Center for
Education

According to Ron Lackey Ed.D., in the case
of D.K. vs. Huntington Beach Union High
School District, the district has filed an
appeal in a due process case lost to
parents who represented themselves. The
HBUHSD appeal is funded by the Orange
County "special ed alliance." The Alliance
has pooled funds from 27 school districts
& the county office of education in Orange
County.

A decision was rendered in the Central
District Federal Court in Santa Ana CA on
March 20, 2006 on the issue of "Pro Se,"
parent representing their student under
IDEA ruled in favor of parent. ( IDEA allows
for Parents Pro Se )

Amazingly, according to Lackey, the school
district is taking this decision on to appeal
to the 9th Cir Court for decision even
though the district was short funds and
claiming encroachment of the special
education budget upon the general
education budget. The appeal has been
certified up to the 9th Cir Court.
