What actions did the OUSD Board take regarding AIMS charter in March 2013?

Moonshot's Answer

In March 2013, the Oakland Unified School District (OUSD) Board voted to revoke the charters of the American Indian Model Schools (AIMS). The decision was made on March 20, 2013, with a 4-3 vote, following a Notice of Intent to Revoke issued in January 2013 and a public hearing in February 2013. The revocation was set to take effect on June 30, 2013. The OUSD cited financial mismanagement and repeated violations of the charter terms as reasons for the revocation. AIMS supporters vowed to appeal the decision to the county and state boards of education. The AIMS charter schools were known for their high API scores and success with low-income, minority students. The decision to revoke their charters was controversial and sparked significant debate within the community.
