		<description><![CDATA[Jason Baeten thinks so. He taught for 10 years at the Julia Morgan School for Girls, and this week he opened an all-boys middle school in Berkeley, the East Bay School for Boys. Their first assignment was to build their own desks, which was fun (and at times, sort of funny) to watch: We&#8217;ll have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A group of students from UC Berkeley&#8217;s Haas School of Business want to know why some families chose an OUSD education for their children (and exactly how they arrived at that conclusion) and why others opted for charter, parochial or independent schools. Their online survey is open until midnight Sunday for all Oakland residents with children who are 22 or younger. You can [...]]]></description>

That, with a successful, parent-energized enrollment drive, it will re-open in the fall  &#8212; but no guarantees. This is what&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been told that enrollment at some public elementary schools dips in the upper grades, as families with means or scholarships transfer their children to private schools. Many others, I hear, make the switch before middle school. I bring this up because it&#8217;s private school application season, and a Thornhill Elementary School mom tells me her school won&#8217;t write personal references for those [...]]]></description>
