Los Angeles Schools Launch Testing And Contact Tracing Program

The Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) has initiated a large-scale testing and contact tracing program to facilitate the safe return of students and teachers to classrooms. Partnering with institutions like UCLA and Microsoft, the program aims to benefit not only the students but the entire Los Angeles area. The initiative, which is unique among major school districts, will initially focus on testing employees and their children. Estimated to cost around $150 million, the program could serve as a model for other districts if successful.
