In honor of #WomensHistoryMonth, our board is making history with five incredible women leading the way for the nation’s second-largest school district. As dedicated leaders and mothers of LA Unified students—from preschool (EEC) to 12th grade—we are shaping the future while impacting thousands of students and families. Together, we’re making history!

Women’s work is powerful! From loving and caring to leading and innovating, from classrooms to boardrooms, from activism to artistry — women’s impact is everywhere! 👏🏽🌸 This month, we celebrate, honor, and uplift the incredible contributions of women past and present, while empowering future generations! #WeAreBD7 #WomensHistoryMonth #WomenEmpowerment #Fearless

I was honored to join the Lomita City Council and Board Member Ortiz-Franklin to celebrate the @LASchools 10th Education Compact with the City of Lomita. With three Los Angeles Unified schools in Lomita and others in the surrounding area, this partnership will provide more supports for our students. We look forward to the continued success of our work together.

As we kick off #BlackHistoryMonth, we take time to reflect on the progress we’ve made in LA Unified and reaffirm our commitment to providing resources that uplift our students to be successful. Black history is celebrated all year long as we continue to affirm and honor our Black scholars, staff, families, community leaders, and ancestors for their contributions. This month we also commemorate the third anniversary of our unanimously passed ‘Black Student Excellence through Educator Diversity, Preparation and Retention’ to respond to the unique challenges faced by our Black students, employees, and families. Ensuring a diverse workforce, particularly with our Black teachers and leaders, is a critical component for our students’ success. #BlackHistoryMonth #WeAreBD7 #LAUSD #DEI #diversity #diversityequityinclusion
