LBREPORT.com/Schools is part of the LBREPORT.com media family. LBREPORT.com/Schools reports news about LB schools the way LBREPORT.com reports news about Long Beach.

We're independent; we're locally owned and operated; we're not part of an out of town based chain, and we're not owned, operated by or affiliated any incumbent officeholder, candidate, PAC or organized lobbying group.

What schools do often affects families more directly than what City Hall does. It's time for no-nonsense news about our schools. It's time for LBREPORT.com/Schools. To read a more detailed introduction, click here.
