By the end of this week, all L.A. Unified School District elementary and early education campuses will have reopened for in-person learning.

Last week, LAUSD reopened 72 district campuses in preparation for this week’s much bigger move: more than 700 elementary and early education campuses will invite students back this week for the first time in more than a year.

Just like last week, the youngest students go first: preschoolers, kindergarteners and 1st graders on Tuesday, then 2nd and 3rd graders on Wednesday. The oldest elementary grades go back Thursday.

Middle- and high schoolers will return to LAUSD campuses next week.

And elsewhere in LA County…

  • Baldwin Park Unified schools at all grade levels will welcome students back to campuses over the course of this week, starting on Monday with the youngest students in elementary schools, 8th graders in middle schools and high school seniors. New grade levels will be invited back each day until all students are back in-person by Friday.
