Despite federal immigration activity near some Los Angeles Unified campuses, Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho said the first day of school was one of the district’s best in recent history.

Carvalho said that ICE activity was reported “close enough” to four district schools Thursday, but they all occurred outside a two-block radius of the campuses.

The immigration activity happened near the following schools:

– Bakewell Primary Center in South L.A.
– Harte Prep Middle School in South L.A.
– Cortines School of Visual & Performing Arts
– Victory Boulevard Elementary and STEAM Magnet in North Hollywood

LAPD alerted one instance of the activity and information on others came from community partners, the superintendent added.

“We activated our protocols and we quickly notified the schools as well as the workforce, and every family member who has children enrolled in our school system,” said Carvalho.
