Carvalho said. “We remain vigilant and will ensure we most effectively and efficiently allocate recurring and non-recurring resources.”

This year’s budget reflects Los Angeles Unified’s dedication to supporting our highly effective workforce, building toward long-term fiscal sustainability and protecting taxpayers’ investments.
