Incumbent Scott Schmerelson will remain on the Los Angeles Unified Board of Education, representing District 3.
Schmerelson said in a phone interview that his opponent, math teacher Dan Chang, called him on Wednesday, Nov. 13, and conceded the competitive race.
“He mentioned that he wanted to make sure that I did all that I promised to do for the students of Board District 3, and I said I would do everything in my power to protect the students and the parents and the employees,” Schmerelson said.
Chang didn’t immediately return a request for comment.
In the latest election results on Tuesday, Nov. 12, LAUSD school board incumbent Schmerelson led with 51.86% of the vote, while newcomer Chang held 48.14%. Schmerelson led by 8,725 votes.
The two candidates were vying for a seat on LAUSD’s seven-member school board to represent District 3 in the West San Fernando Valley, which includes areas such as North Hollywood, Sherman Oaks, Van Nuys, Canoga Park, Chatsworth, Woodland Hills, and West Hills.
