There's an app for that: One of my first initiatives after taking office was to create a one-stop shop LA Unified mobile app to modernize the district's communications approach and make two-way communications with parents and schools easier. I'm thrilled that the app is up and running—and already has thousands of users! Click here to learn more about what the LA Unified App can do for you!
Putting kids first means providing our schools with the resources they need: since taking office, we have funded $119,587,404 in projectsto directly benefit schools in my district—including new Chromebooks at Grand View ES through our Board District 4 Bond Grant Program!

Listening & Learning: Board District 4 in the Community
This school year, we have held over 80 parent and school community meetings, engaging and seeking the input of all our stakeholders in order to meet the needs of our families.
I also helped kick off "Melrose Mornings" with the Fairfax community and partners, and joined Communities in Schools to celebrate their work supporting and empowering our students to achieve success!
