Overview
- Under the agreement, more than 100,000 students performing below grade level are slated to receive at least 45 hours of high‑dose tutoring each year through 2028.
- Roughly 250,000 students who were enrolled during campus closures and remain in the district will gain access to after‑school and summer programs along with other academic supports.
- Tutoring must align with classroom instruction and be delivered in small groups of up to six students or one‑on‑one at least three times per week in 30‑minute sessions.
- The settlement requires regular assessments, additional teacher training in English language arts and math, outreach to chronically absent or dropped‑out students, and disaggregated public reporting with annual evaluations of tutoring effectiveness.
- The deal caps a five‑year case dismissed in 2021 and later reinstated on appeal, and LAUSD has declined comment as reports differ on whether obligations begin before court approval.
