LAUSD STRATEGIC PLAN

Dear Vanalden Families,

We’re excited about the start of the 2022-23 school year on August 15. We look forward to having everyone back on campus, learning together as we begin a new year.

I also wanted to remind families that the Los Angeles Unified School District released our 2022-26 Strategic Plan. For the next four years, Los Angeles Unified will focus on a singular goal: to ensure ALL students graduate READY FOR THE WORLD - to thrive in college, career and life. We are committed to providing quality instruction that meets the needs of all students, focusing on social-emotional wellness and collaborating with our families so that our entire extended community may contribute toward student success. Please take a look and learn more about the District’s Strategic Plan by visiting achieve.lausd.net/strategicplan.

We are partners in your child’s education, and we will learn and grow together to ensure the success of our future leaders.

Sincerely,
Yoshim Yang
Principal
