Vaccine Guidance
Information for Families

Beginning on September 26, 2023, the Los Angeles Unified Board of Education rescinded its COVID-19 vaccine mandate. Employees, contractors, vendors, volunteers, charter school employees, and prospective employees are no longer required to be vaccinated against COVID-19.

Los Angeles Unified schools continue to be one of the safest places for students to be as a result of the robust safety measures implemented during the pandemic.

Los Angeles Unified remains committed to continuing to provide clean, maintained and well-ventilated school facilities. With the availability of vaccines and therapeutics, schools have successfully safely reopened for in-person learning.

To ensure our school communities remain safe, Los Angeles Unified has engaged in several important preventative and proactive safety measures guided by local health officials and medical experts.
