LAUSD Chief Put on Paid Leave as FBI Probes District and EdTech Deal
Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto Carvalho was placed on paid leave as federal authorities investigate the district, with the FBI executing search warrants at his home and at district headquarters. Interim operations chief Andres Chait will run the district while Carvalho is away. The probe reportedly centers on a 2024 deal with AllHere, an education-technology company tied to an AI chatbot project LAUSD paid about $3 million for before ending the contract; AllHere’s founder has been indicted, and a Florida property linked to the case was searched. Carvalho has said he had no personal involvement in selecting AllHere, and LAUSD says it is cooperating with investigators.
