More than 60 Laguna Beach parents and students waived colorful signs and chanted at Park Avenue and Legion Street on Wednesday to protest a proposed academic schedule for the Laguna Beach Unified School District.
Many of the protestors were frustrated with the so-called “4 by 4” model that would enroll students in four courses per semester for the 2021-22 school year, rather than the usual six courses. Students would also need to complete each course in a semester instead of the usual practice of an entire school year.
