Student Advisory Council



The Superintendent's Student Advisory Council is a unique opportunity for high school students throughout Los Angeles County to share feedback, experiences, and perspectives on various issues affecting schools and communities with Los Angeles County Superintendent of Schools Debra Duardo. Elevating student voice is critical to shaping conversations about education and youth development

The 2023-2024 Superintendent's Student Advisory Council collaborated with renowned Los Angeles cartoonist Lalo Alcaraz to create an animated film focusing on social justice and equity in Los Angeles County schools.

From selecting the theme to crafting the storyboard, overseeing editing, recording voiceovers and even starring in the animation, students took charge of every aspect of this project.
