- Los Angeles Unified is committed to providing every student in our District with a safe learning environment. As a part of the Every School Safe: Blueprint for Safety, throughout the 2024-2025 school year, students will be taught strategies to help them recognize concerns and how to ask for help.  Students throughout LAUSD will participate in the six (6) presentations during assemblies, and advisory/homeroom. See letter below:
