LOS ANGELES—Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto Carvalho delivered his first Opening of Schools address Aug. 8 at the Microsoft Theater ahead of the first day of school next week, conceding issues of declining enrollment and difficult financial times on the horizon.
Carvalho—who took over the post in February after 14 years as superintendent of the Miami-Dade County public schools system—said it is “no secret” that the school district has been impacted by the pandemic and transition to virtual learning.
