The LAUSD Is Feeding Adults In Need — Who Should Pay The Cost?

School board candidate Marilyn Koziatek admonishes incumbent Scott Schmerelson for asking the city for needed funding while her own charter school turns away those in need.

“I don’t begrudge them one bite of anything, but we should not be paying for that. We should be reimbursed for that.”

Within days of closing down schools due to the COVID-19 crisis, the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) opened Grab and Go Food Centers to ensure that the most vulnerable in our community continue to have access to food. The district has served over 10 million meals under this program, “not only feeding its students, but also adults in the community.”
