Germain, Superior Schools Losing Title I Funds

School board votes to redirect the aid to schools with more impoverished students.

and elementary schools in Chatsworth are among nine Valley schools to lose Title I funding because the school board voted Tuesday to redirect the money to schools with more impoverished students.

Board member Tamar Galatzan cast the only dissenting vote as the board stripped Title I funds from Knollwood, Germain, Nestle, Superior, Dearborn and Hamlin Elementary, Nobel Middle School, Sherman Oaks Center for Enriched Studies and Millikan Middle School.
