Quick Summary / Abstract: Staff will present our LCAP Midyear Report, LCAP Supplement to the Annual Update, and an update to the 2021-2022 Budget Overview for Parents.
Background: California's school funding law, the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF), provides uniform base funding allocated in accordance with the grade span of pupils, as well as supplemental funding for pupils identified in at least one of the following categories: English Learner (EL), foster youth, or Socioeconomically Disadvantaged (SED) students. Each district must develop and implement a Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP), which describes how districts intend to meet annual goals with specific activities to address State and local priorities as identified in Education Code.

The LCAP is a three-year plan that is updated annually. We are currently in the first year of our three-year LCAP cycle, as our 2021-24 LCAP was initially approved by the Board on June 29, 2021, and again at a subsequent meeting on September 7, 2021. Our LCAP includes actions and expenditures to meet our three District LCAP goals for all students and specifically for EL, SED, and/or foster youth. Our three LCAP goals are:

Goal 1: Increase the percentage of students who have the skills and knowledge to graduate from high school, college and/or career ready

Goal 2: Provide an engaging, clean, healthy, and physically and emotionally safe environment to support learning at the highest levels

Goal 3: Enhance parent and community engagement and communication

The LCAP is developed and updated annually after consultation with teachers, principals, administrators, school personnel, and with the advice and input of our two Board-approved District-level parent advisory committees. One committee is comprised of representatives of the aforementioned groups as well as parents representing each school site in our community and all designated student groups: EL, foster youth, and SED students. The second advisory committee is comprised of parents of EL students, also from each school in our District.
Status Our LCAP includes actions and activities for all students in our District, as well as specific actions primarily designed for students who are EL, foster youth, or SED students.

Our LCAP advisory committees have been involved in reviewing data and each action step outlined for each of the three LCAP goals as part of the LCAP Annual Update. Committee members have learned about the LCAP template, the accountability Dashboard, our District budget, and many of the programs and services we offer. Throughout this process, Committee members provide valuable input through their comments, questions, and suggestions for consideration.

The updated LCAP must be adopted by June 30th at a regular public meeting of the Board of Education.
Fiscal Impact There is no impact to the General Fund in the update of the Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP); however, the LCAP indicates actions and services with an associated anticipated budget for each action item. Budget items included in the LCAP are part of the LCFF.
Superintendent's Recommendation: This item is informational only and requires no action be taken by the Board of Education.
