Summary: The Williams legislation is a package of state laws resulting from the settlement of a class action lawsuit filed in San Francisco County Superior Court in 2000, Eliezer Williams et al, vs. State of California.

The basis of the lawsuit was that agencies failed to provide public school students with equal access to instructional materials, safe and decent school facilities, and qualified teachers. The Contra Costa County Office of Education has requested quarterly reports on specific complaints designated in the Williams lawsuit settlement.

Quarterly reports reflect complaints regarding textbooks and instructional materials, teacher vacancies or misassignments, facilities conditions and Valenzuela/CAHSEE support. This quarter's report includes the months April 2011 through June 2011.
