Federal agents executed search warrants Wednesday at both the Los Angeles Unified School District’s main offices and the home of Superintendent Alberto Carvalho as part of an active federal investigation.<\/p>

A source with knowledge of the investigation confirmed to The Associated Press that FBI officials carried out the warrant searches Wednesday, though they requested anonymity to discuss the ongoing probe. Authorities have not revealed what specific allegations or criminal activity they are investigating.<\/p>

Neither the school district nor Carvalho’s office provided immediate responses to requests for comment about the federal action.<\/p>

Television news cameras captured footage of federal agents wearing FBI identification outside Carvalho’s residence in San Pedro, a neighborhood located approximately 20 miles south of downtown Los Angeles. By mid-morning, no agents were visible at the district’s main administrative building.<\/p>

Los Angeles Unified serves as the country’s second-largest school system, educating more than 500,000 students across over two dozen municipalities throughout the region.<\/p>

Carvalho assumed leadership of the district in February 2022. Prior to his Los Angeles appointment, he led Miami-Dade County Public Schools\u2014Florida’s largest district\u2014for 13 years from 2008 to 2021, where he earned recognition for boosting graduation rates and student achievement.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
