Today is the last day of spring semester classes for LA Unified, and for thousands of students it means summer is finally here. For teachers, it also is the start of vacation, and tomorrow they will get their first fat paycheck including a long-awaited raise and backpay that is due as the result of their new contract.

LA School Report will still be reporting all the important education and LA Unified news over the summer, as there will be plenty of important district news happening, not the least of which will be the school board debating and voting on a new budget.
