Endorsed Candidates

District 5 - Karla Griego

Karla understands what our schools need because she is living it every single day. Karla is an LAUSD parent and veteran educator, with 20-plus years of classroom experience at every grade level. She will be the first Special Education teacher elected to the board. Karla is a UTLA member leader and was on the ground organizing for the historic 2019 UTLA Strike and leading her chapter in our 2023 Solidarity Strike. Karla has led at every single level of the union, fighting to raise salaries and to bring more resources to educators. She will bring a new energy to the school board and will not be satisfied with “solutions” that don’t actually solve the problem.

District 3 - Scott Schmerelson

Scott is an experienced educator-in-office who, in the face of a powerful privatization machine, has been a steadfast supporter of public schools during his two terms on the board. Scott cast one of the four majority votes to pass the antico-location resolution and has led on protecting schools from co-location. This year, when the district was threatening to undermine our voice in healthcare, Scott fought right beside us. Unlike the privatizers, Scott shares power with schools and communities and sees fellow educators as partners, and he walked with us during the 2019 UTLA Strike.

District 1 - Kahllid Al-Alim

Kahllid is a parent of five current and former LAUSD students and a community organizer who has two decades of fighting for public education under his belt. Born and raised in South LA, Kahllid fought alongside UTLA educators to create transformational programs like the Black Student Achievement Plan and Community Schools. As a foundational member of Reclaim Our Schools LA and Students Deserve, Kahllid was a key player in organizing parent and community support for our 2019 and 2023 contract campaigns and strikes. Kahllid is a lifelong union sibling and current member of SEIU 721.
