LOS ANGELES (KNX) – On Tuesday, the Los Angeles Unified Board of Education approved LAUSD’s Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho's recommendation to delay student COVID-19 vaccinations for July 1, 2023.
“Today’s vote shows that we are a science-based school district, and the health and safety protocols we adopt are influenced by the expert advice of our medical partners and public health officials,” Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho said.
“With our nation-leading safety standards, as well as our high rate of vaccinated students over 12, the conditions we find ourselves in have greatly improved,” Board president Kelly Gonez said.
“Today’s decision demonstrates that as circumstances change and evolve, the District will continue to make decisions about student safety and well-being in consultation with leading health experts and that are rooted in science.”
The vaccination requirement for Los Angeles Unified employees will stay as is.
