LAUSD adopts $5.5 billion budget
The L.A. Unified school board Tuesday adopted a $5.5 billion budget for the upcoming school year that will force some 2,500 teacher layoffs, larger class sizes and the elimination of many popular programs.
The board also signed off on $130 million in new cuts for the current 2008-09 school year that ends next week, prompted by the failure of state ballot measures in March.
