April 17, 2009 Via electronic filing The Hon. Thelton E. Henderson Senior District Judge United States District Court, Northern District of California P.O. Box 36060 San Francisco, CA 94102 Re: Emma C. v. Delaine Eastin, et al. United States District Court, Northern District of California, Case No. C96-4179TEH Dear Judge Henderson: The Ravenswood City School District (District) and California Department of Education (CDE) continue to confer on the 2009-2010 RSIP Budget. I write this letter on behalf of both the District and CDE, and have conferred with Eugene Whitlock, counsel for the District, in the preparation and contents of it. Based on the discussions that CDE and the District have had, it appears that a 2009-2010 RSIP Budget Agreement will be reached within the next several weeks. However, as a result of the continuing budget crisis impacting the State of California, before CDE can give final approval to any 2009-2010 RSIP Budget Proposal/Agreement, it must be heard and approved by the State Board of Education (SBE). The SBE is scheduled to take up the matter of the 2009-2010 RSIP Budget at its May 7, 2009 meeting.

April 17, 2009 Page 2

Because the SBE will not be taking up the 2009-2010 RSIP Budget Proposal/Agreement until May 7, 2009, both CDE and the District respectfully ask for an extension until May 8, 2009, to submit the 2009-2010 RSIP Budget Agreement. This is a relatively short extension and should not be viewed as an impediment to the District and CDE reaching an agreement on the 2009-2010 RSIP Budget. Thank you for your consideration of this proposal. Sincerely, /s/ Shannon M. Chambers SHANNON M. CHAMBERS Deputy Attorney General For EDMUND G. BROWN JR. Attorney General
