LOS ANGELES, Calif.–Due to the ongoing budget crisis, the Los Angeles Unified School District announced today it will offer limited summer classes and support services, including reduced online courses and community food programs.

Starting July 6, summer school will be offered at select high schools for 11th graders who received a grade of “D” or “F,” and 10th graders who received an “F” in required classes for graduation.

Students in 12th grade who do not graduate will be referred to Adult School.
