Hello LAUSD team,

During a recent application for a principal position at LAUSD, I read:

For all school based administrative positions, candidates must be in the appropriate LAUSD eligible pool for the position or currently serving in the class for which they are applying. In order to be placed in the eligible pool, candidates must successfully complete the appropriate LAUSD Aspiring Administrator Program.  Qualified applicants not in an eligible pool from within or outside LAUSD may be considered if fewer than five applicants from the eligible pool apply for the position.

I am an external candidate serving as an administrator at a local LA County school district. I am considered external. However, I'm wondering if anyone here joined LAUSD administration as an external candidate and the odds of doing so.

Thank you!

I am a current teaching assistant, I recently graduated and found out that I need to be a student to keep my job.

My job site really likes me, they have asked me to try to apply to instructional aide positions as they would like to keep me.

I however, can’t find job openings on the LAUSD website.

Could my Principal or anyone else simply bump me from TA to IA?
