The LA-USP, building upon the infrastructure and improved student outcomes emanating from previous funding under the National Science Foundation's Urban Systemic Initiative effort, focuses on enhancing the capacity of the system as a whole, and the instructional workforce in particular, in order to support all students in learning and mastering standards-based mathematics and science at a level sufficient for successful matriculation to university or the workforce. Building upon the accomplishments of the LA-USI, LAUSD proposes specific goals that are congruent with the USP solicitation goals and exemplify a core vision of success for all. Through the LA-USP, LAUSD intends to: (1) raise the district's capacity to bring the highest quality of mathematics and science instruction to students; (2) substantially increase all students' achievement, pass rates, access to college and careers in mathematics, science, and technology, with special attention to underrepresented minorities; (3) scale-up implementation of standards-based curricula, pedagogy, and assessment for all students through Differentiated Professional Development (DPD); (4) align mathematics and science instruction so that grade-appropriate content and processes lead progressively to higher level science and mathematics for all students; (5) increase the number of college-eligible students and the number majoring in mathematics and science by increasing enrollment in Advanced Placement (AP) mathematics and science courses; (6) improve instructional workforce quality in collaboration with universities by developing appropriate pre- and in-service courses in mathematics and science; (7) work with university and district partners to connect teachers' in-service professional development to the standard-based student expectations; (8) engage parents in advocacy and action roles related to enrollment in advanced mathematics courses, as well as promote parental interactions with preservice teachers in order to encourage such interactions with families by teachers in the future; and (9) effectively use internal and external research and evaluation to assess progress for all students, and to identify interactive factors that foster present gains as foundational for increased future gains. In order to accomplish these goals, the LA-USP staff will (A) use Differentiated Professional Development (DPD), a platform for in-service, that shapes sessions to fit teacher needs; (B) increase dissemination of program information to the community; (C) accelerate collaboration with higher education to equip teacher graduates with new skills needed for LAUSD's multilingual, multicultural, multiethnic enrollment; and (D) restructure instructional services to fit the reorganization of the LAUSD's administrative structure in order to meet the system's need for DPD and accountability for student achievement. Central to the implementation of the USP is the expansion of the MST Centers and attendant Resource Teachers to serve all of the recently formulated eleven (11) local school districts that comprise the united district that is the Los Angeles Unified School District.

该LA-USP，建立在基础设施和改善学生的成果来自以前的资金在国家科学基金会的城市系统性倡议的努力，侧重于提高整个系统的能力，特别是教学队伍，为了支持所有学生学习和掌握标准-基础数学和科学水平足以成功进入大学或工作。 在LA-USI成就的基础上，LAUSD提出了与USP招标目标一致的具体目标，并提出了所有人成功的核心愿景。 通过LA-USP，LAUSD打算：（1）提高该地区为学生提供最高质量的数学和科学教育的能力;（2）大幅提高所有学生的成绩、及格率、进入大学和从事数学、科学和技术职业的机会，特别关注代表性不足的少数民族;（3）通过差异化专业发展（DPD），为所有学生扩大实施基于标准的课程、教学法和评估;（4）调整数学和科学教学，使适合年级的内容和过程逐步为所有学生带来更高水平的科学和数学;（5）通过增加大学先修课程（AP）数学和科学课程的入学人数，增加符合大学资格的学生人数和主修数学和科学的学生人数;（6）与大学合作，通过开发适当的数学和科学职前和在职课程，提高教师队伍的质量;（7）与大学和地区伙伴合作，将教师的在职专业发展与学生的标准期望联系起来;（8）让家长参与与高等数学课程入学相关的宣传和行动角色，以及促进家长与幼儿教师的互动，以鼓励教师今后与家庭进行这种互动;有效地利用内部和外部的研究和评估，以评估所有学生的进步，并确定互动因素，促进目前的收益为基础，增加未来的收益。 为了实现这些目标，LA-USP的工作人员将：（A）利用差异化专业发展（DPD），这是一个在职平台，它根据教师的需要来安排课程;（B）增加向社区传播方案信息;（C）加快与高等教育的合作，使师范毕业生具备LAUSD多语言、多文化、多种族招生所需的新技能;及（D）重组教学服务，以配合LAUSD行政架构的重组，以满足系统对DPD和学生成绩问责制的需求。 USP实施的核心是MST中心和相关资源教师的扩展，以服务于所有最近制定的十一（11）个当地学区，这些学区组成了洛杉矶联合学区。
