Photograph of unidentified Los Angeles school children sitting at desks studying, while their teacher observes. Their classroom is located in a tent, which makes it even more difficult to concentrate on hot, sunny days. The Los Angeles Times newspaper reports indicate that school bonds would fund brand new fireproof and earthquake-proof buildings to house Los Angeles schools.
