Ruling Tonight on Secondary Education

The board of the Newport-Mesa Unified School District will decide tonight whether to overhaul its secondary education programs.

The decision comes on the heels of the discovery that the vast majority of the incoming students at Newport Harbor High School read at their grade level.

Supt. Mac Bernd said the board may decide to study ways to change the curriculum.

The board will also consider ways to improve the space at the district’s secondary schools.
