Background
The Los Angeles City Board of Education serves as the governing, policy-making body for the
Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), which was previously composed of three
districts: the Los Angeles City School District that served kindergarten through 8th grade
and formed on September 19, 1853; the Los Angeles City High School District that served
grades 9 through 12 and formed in 1890; and the Los Angeles City Junior College District
formed in 1931. As a result of the school unification election of June 7, 1960, the
elementary and high school districts merged to form the LAUSD on July 1, 1961. Since July 1,
1969, the Los Angeles Junior College District has been governed by a separate Board of
Trustees.
