I’m Dr. David Baca, proud Superintendent of Region North—and equally proud father. As one of four regions within the Los Angeles Unified School District, Region North serves a diverse and vibrant community of more than 140,000 students across 252 schools in the northern part of the District.
I am truly honored to serve this incredible region—our students, families, educators, and communities—each of whom plays a vital role in shaping the future.
Our mission is clear and unwavering: to ensure that every single student graduates Ready for the World—prepared not only for college and career, but for a life of purpose, contribution, and possibility.
We believe that when students are supported, challenged, and inspired, they rise to meet any challenge—and then go beyond it. That’s why we are committed to providing rigorous academics, safe and inclusive environments, and opportunities that honor the unique gifts each student brings.
With your partnership, we know our students will become the next generation of changemakers, problem solvers, innovators, and leaders—ready to shape a brighter future for us all.
I invite you to connect with us through our Region North website to explore the many ways we can support your child’s journey. Together, we can help every student realize their full potential—because their future is our shared purpose.
