SAGEBRUSH TOWN HALL MEETING
A town hall meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, March 25 at 7 p.m. at the Crescenta Valley High School auditorium to discuss the potential transfer of territory affecting La Cañada residents attending the Glendale Unified School District.
Representatives of both districts will be available to answer questions.
In May 2013, a group of citizens from the City of La Cañada requested the city to support and endorse the realignment of the western areas of the City of La Cañada into LCUSD. In June 2013, the La Cañada City Council adopted a resolution in support of the territory transfer of the area known as Sagebrush.
Schools affected by the proposed transfer include Mountain Avenue Elementary School, Rosemont Middle School, and Crescenta Valley High School.
Options to mitigate the impact of a property transfer on the GUSD general obligation bond debt that has been issued for Measure K and Measure S are being explored.
Crescenta Valley High School auditorium is located in the 4400 block of Ramsdell Avenue in La Crescenta.
