LOS ANGELES
Members of the Los Angeles school board reelected Jose Huizar as board president Thursday at their annual meeting. Huizar, an attorney, represents District 2, which includes downtown Los Angeles, Boyle Heights, Lincoln Heights, Pico-Union and Chinatown. He is in his fourth year as a board member.
Before the unanimous vote, board member Julie Korenstein told Huizar that he had held the board together “through an extraordinarily difficult school year.” The board just completed a round of budget cuts that shrank the district’s $6.8-billion operating budget by about $500 million.
