Statement in response to the Los Angeles Unified School District’s resolution

Statement in response to the Los Angeles Unified School District’s resolution entitled “Offering Families More – Promoting, Celebrating and Replicating Success Across LAUSD"

We are encouraged by the LAUSD resolution seeking to replicate high-performing District schools. One of the best ways to bring additional educational opportunities to Los Angeles students is to expand the schools — charter, district or magnet — that are already succeeding.

We look forward to working in partnership with LAUSD on this effort.

Great Public Schools Now is an independent, non-profit organization working to accelerate the growth of high-quality public schools and significantly reduce the number of students attending chronically low performing schools in Los Angeles. The organization is a collaborative effort of parents, students, teachers, community leaders, foundations and Angelenos dedicated to ensuring all Los Angeles students receive a high-quality K-12 education.
