    One comment about the Chatsworth Senior High

    Less than half your students are receiving free lunch (so not Title 1), and only 15% of your students are ELL's. The teacher student ratio is 26:1. And you missed 6 of the state goals?????? What is going on over there? I'm disappointed, as a former parent of four CHS students and as a LAUSD teacher, that my local school is in such a pathetic position. You need to work together, and soon, to formulate a plan before even more students are truly LEFT BEHIND!
