Document Description
In 2020, voters in Los Angeles County passed Measure RR as a funding mechanism to help address the significant and unfunded needs of Los Angeles public school facilities. Measure RR is aimed at continuing the funding for improvement of facilities and technology, upgrade of existing facilities, as well as increased safety measures. Measure RR proceeds may also be used when necessary to complete projects initiated with funds from Measure K, R, Y, and/or Q as long as the project appears on the Measure RR Bond Project List, as authorized by voters. The District’s bond program has been operating under the framework of the School Upgrade Program (SUP) since January 2014, when the program’s focus shifted from constructing new facilities to address decades of overcrowding, to addressing aging existing school facilities. Projects developed under the SUP framework are upgrading, modernizing, and replacing aging and deteriorating school facilities, updating technology, and addressing facilities inequities. Projects designed to achieve the objectives of Measure RR will be incorporated into the SUP based on a prioritization methodology adopted through the solicitation of input from Community of Schools Administrators and Regional District leadership to help inform priorities, scoping and project development. Under Measure RR and in association with other, ongoing LA Unifed Facilities programs, the District is proposing to upgrade, modernize, and replace aging and deteriorating District school facilities; update technology; and address District school facilities inequities in order to provide students with physically and environmentally safe, secure, and updated school facilities that support 21st century learning at hundreds of neighborhood schools District-wide. Not every project will be undertaken at every campus, and some campuses may not undergo any of the repairs, upgrades, or modernization. Each category of project will be carried out at schools found to have the greatest need, as determined by the Strategic Execution Plan adopted by the LAUSD Board of Education. The program may include, but is not limited to, the following types of campus-specific projects: • Major modernizations, upgrades, and reconfigurations to school campuses; • Critical replacements and upgrades of school building/site systems and components; • Upgrade and equip schools with 21st Century technologies, and upgrade technology infrastructure, information systems, hardware and software; • School upgrades and reconfigurations to support wellness, health, athletics, learning, and efficiency; • Specialized facilities upgrades such as Early Childhood Education Centers, Adult and Career Education facilities, and school cafeterias; • Transition Plan implementation; • Districtwide Charter School facilities upgrades and expansions.
