Pasadena Unified School District - Handbooks, 1973-1975
Scope and Contents
The collection is comprised of a variety of pieces of writing, some of which were written specifically by Carolee Gardner Trefts, including her correspondence, notes and research compiled from newspapers, city organization meetings and agenda minutes. There is a typed manuscript from the 1950s and 1960s written by the head of the teachers'union, which provides historical background into the issues of the school district. There are also court case papers from 1974-1975 regarding modifications to the "Pasadena Plan". In 1970, the District Court, ordered the Board to submit a plan for desegregation of the Pasadena schools. The "Pasadena Plan" was developed and implemented in 1971. Some teachers, parents and students wanted modifications to the plan, which was the basis of these court case papers against the Pasadena City Board of Education. The newspaper articles mainly cover the Pasadena School Board elections, meetings and the issues surrounding the court cases from the early to mid-1970s.
