Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) Superintendent Michelle King has received a two-year extension to her contract, which will now expire in 2020.

There were no other changes to the contract. King’s salary is $350,000 annually.

“I am grateful to the board for its confidence in our ongoing effort to provide a high-quality education so that all of our students are prepared for success when they graduate,” King said.

King is a LAUSD graduate who has worked for more than three decades as a teacher, coordinator and administrator. She has led district-wide reforms to increase graduation rates, which reached a historic high in 2016. She has also been a champion of programs such as restorative justice, aimed at keeping students in school.

King was recently named Superintendent of the Year by the National Association of School Superintendents. Other honors include a Woman of the Year award from Women On Target, a nonprofit advocacy group supporting leaders in Southern California’s African-American community, and a Woman of the Year award from California Assemblyman Sebastian Ridley-Thomas (D-Los Angeles).
