2024-27 Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP)

Current Board-Approved Plans

Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP)

Under the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF), all Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) are required to adopt an LCAP, which describes how they intend to meet annual goals for all pupils, with specific activities to address state and local priorities identified pursuant to Education Code Section 52060(d).

California school districts must engage with families, students, educators, employees, and the community to develop the district’s LCAP. The LCAP will describe the school district’s overall vision for students, annual goals, and specific actions that will be taken to achieve the vision and goals. The LCAP must focus on the eight areas identified as state priorities. The plan will also demonstrate how the district’s budget will help achieve the goals, and will annually assess how well the strategies in the plan were able to improve outcomes.
