At the same time, LAUSD began planning for an eventual reopening. In addition to its 650,000 students, LAUSD has 75,000 employees at 1,400 schools spread across 700 square miles, so any effort to reopen safely is a major undertaking. LAUSD knew that it couldn’t do this alone, so it brought in a consortium of partners to help develop strategies and implement a plan.
Along with its partners, including Microsoft, LAUSD developed a plan called “Safe Steps to Safe Schools” to help coordinate and monitor testing for staff, students, and their families to gain admission and safely return to school.
