Los Angeles Unified has more than 92,000 English Learners and we are thankful for the students who spoke at today’s School Board meeting about their language journey. Thank you Emily and Santiago from Julie Korenstein ES, Stephany from @VerdugoHillsHS, Valeria and Nestor from @Jefferson_Demos, Mia from Olive Vista MS, and Jasmine from John Liechty MS for sharing ideas to help all students on their journey toward bilingualism.

September 30th is National Day of Remembrance, Orange Shirt Day, and it is a day to bring awareness of children who were affected by Indian Boarding Schools. 

We invite you to explore the resources developed by the Title VI American Indian and Indigenous Education Program to learn more about Indian Boarding Schools in the United States, Canada, and California. 

Join us and wear ORANGE on Friday, September 29, 2023, in observance of the National Day of Remembrance.  Tag MMED on Instagram, @mmed_lausd, showing your support.
