When foster care children move between homes, they often end up changing schools too. It's disruptive and can hurt their grades, which is why years ago California put a system in place to help. Foster Care Services is often held up as a model for other states -- but now it's in jeopardy. Governor Brown's proposal to give local school districts more control over state revenue would eliminate the $15 million program, and send that money directly to school districts instead.
