Uni High Education Foundation

Since its founding in 1924, University High School has always been an exceptional member of the Los Angeles Unified School District.

Over the decades, Uni’s faculty and staff have given tens of thousands of students a rock-solid foundation for their fut The Uni High Education Foundation

Since its founding as Warren G. Harding High School in 1924, what we know today as University High School has always been a center of excellence. Re-named in 1929 in honor of the move by UCLA to its Westwood campus, Uni’s faculty and staff have

given tens of thousands of students a rock-solid foundation for their future. The University High School Education Foundation (UHEF) is helping ensure that today’s students are able to continue to excel in academic, arts and athletics, as have those of the past. The UHEF was created as a 501(c)(3) charitable, tax-exempt corporation in 1985. The Articles of Incorporation state specifically its purpose:

“… to raise funds for University High School, Los Angeles, California to help maintain the high standards of education in the school and the community by supplementing funding which has been substantially reduced since [passage of California] Proposition 13.”

The Foundation is a volunteer organization. Its Board of Directors meets monthly in West Los Angeles. The UHEF produces an annual newsletter for its members detailing activities, expenditures, and alumni news for the previous year (our most recent Newsletter, in PDF format, is available here). It is mailed only to those (1) who are members in good standing, and (2) for whom we have current mailing information.

Exclusive: The Education Department says it will fix its $1.8 billion FAFSA mistake

Families have a lot of questions right now about how much help they'll get paying for college — questions that financial aid offices can't yet answer.

That's because this year's Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is months behind schedule. And to make things really complicated, it includes a mistake that would have cost students $1.8 billion in federal student aid.

We covered the mistake in detail here. In a nutshell: The U.S. Education Department's FAFSA math, for deciding how much aid a student should get, is wrong.

In practice, this mistake would make some students and families appear to have more income than they really do, and that means they would get less aid than they should. And not just federal financial aid but also all sorts of state and school-based aid.

What should I do if college isn’t for me? We tackle that question in this installment of our ‘Ask CJN’ column, in which student journalists answer readers’ questions about California higher education. One option for those eschewing college: apprenticeships, which often offer a living wage and a guaranteed job upon completion.

Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech, delivered during the March on Washington in 1963, was to advocate for civil and economic rights for African Americans and to call for an end to racism and segregation in the United States. King envisioned a future where individuals would be judged by their character rather than the color of their skin, promoting equality and justice for all. The speech became a powerful symbol of the American civil rights movement.
