With the strength of families, educators, faith leaders and community stakeholders, there is nothing we cannot do for our students. The promises made in our Strategic Plan are promises I intend to keep. #IBelieveInLAUSD

#LAUSD is armed with over $18B and a strategic plan filled with bold promises this year. For the plan to be successful, parents must be engaged as partners and seen as leaders in this work. Join us on Mon. 11/14 for a meeting with @LAUSDSup to learn more https://t.co/2Ibc8qEgKv

Every day that Nury, Gil and Kevin delay their resignations is a another day Los Angeles can’t move forward. We need them to do the right thing. NOW.

I share @NickMelvoinBD4's frustration! @LASchools needs to do a better job at getting kids access to tutoring now. We need to remove the barriers for tutoring partners who are ready to do the work.

[Diversity in Leadership Institute @dil_institute]

In the recent IAU report, LAUSD acknowledged the need for Black educators. As leaders in the prioritization workforce diversity in CA K-12 education systems, we invite you to share our recommendations to further advance representation. @NickMelvoinBD4 @Kelly4LASchools

[Innovate Public Schools LA @InnovatePS_LA]

Parents know that #LAUSD budget carryovers shortchange students. We need the board to equitably distribute resources from the $18B budget for students who need it most this year. @LAUSDSup @NickMelvoinBD4 @lausdbd7 @boarddistrict2 @Jackie4LAkids @DrGeorgeMcKenna @ScottAtLAUSD

[Evelyn Aleman @Evaleman]

Parent leaders from @InnovatePS_LA, residents of @City_of_HP and @SouthGateCAgov, call on @LASchools to address tutoring deserts in their communities. The two cities are investing more than $200k in tutoring in #SELA. We need #LAUSD to invest funds earmarked for recovery.

[Jennifer Perla @jenmonicaperla]

Fewer than 1 in 10 LAUSD students have access to tutoring. LAUSD has the recovery funds to increase access— let’s make it happen! @LAUSDSup @NickMelvoinBD4 @lausdbd5 @lausdbd7 @DrGeorgeMcKenna @ScottAtLAUSD

In order to help our families and communities recover from learning loss, we need @LASchools to take advantage of the opportunity to address tutoring deserts this summer.

Innovate Parent Leader, Cristina Sanchez shares her experience with tutoring and her vision to make tutoring more accessible. LAUSD has nearly $1 billion combined in ELO-P and ELO-G funding to make tutoring more accessible, but hardly any has been spent so far.

[Innovate Public Schools LA @InnovatePS_LA]

"The students need help now; they can’t afford to wait another year to fill the academic gaps left by more than a year of remote learning. And the federal pandemic relief money provided to schools for this extra help is scheduled to dry up in 2024."

[Innovate Public Schools LA @InnovatePS_LA]

Everyone agrees tutoring is the best strategy to help students recover. @LASchools needs to ensure more than 10% of students receive tutoring now.
