Between 10,000 and 20,000 students are missing from the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) enrollment rosters—just two weeks before the start of the 2022–23 school year.

District Superintendent Alberto Carvalho said last week at a press conference the number of students unaccounted for is likely due to obstacles that block them from attending school, such as a lack of transportation, an LAUSD spokesperson confirmed to The Epoch Times.
