Most expensive L.A. high school opens

LOS ANGELES City and school district officials, along with students, parents and community members, cut the ribbon on the Edward R. Roybal Learning Center.

The facility accommodates over 2,800 students from the Pico-Union community. It serves students in 9th through 12th grades and is home to four small learning communities and two independent pilot schools.

The opening of the new center allows Belmont High School to return to a traditional two-semester calendar for the first time in 26 years.
