## Resource

LAUSD just named Andrés Chait as its permanent superintendent — a move that comes after his predecessor abruptly stepped down amid a federal probe into a botched AI project. Chait, a 30-year LAUSD veteran and immigrant from Chile, is already tackling big challenges: averting a teacher strike, securing a billion-dollar state budget boost, and ensuring no cuts to critical programs like school meals. He’s also pushing for enhanced campus safety and is focused on keeping the massive “Summer of Learning” program on track for 70,000 students — all while the investigation into his predecessor continues.
