LAUSD’s New Superintendent Takes Charge

from California News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

LAUSD has a new superintendent: Andres Chait, a veteran district insider with nearly 30 years of experience, was unanimously appointed just days after his predecessor resigned amid FBI scrutiny. Though Carvalho, who cited a need to refocus on students, hasn’t been charged and maintains his innocence, Chait—already serving as acting superintendent—steps in with deep operational expertise, having led school safety and emergency management. With LAUSD facing mounting pressures—declining enrollment, funding woes, and academic gaps—Chait’s long tenure and hands-on leadership are seen as critical assets to steer the nation’s second-largest district through turbulent times.
