So…What are the Pieces? 1.Comprehensive needs assessment, based on data and information from Stake Holder Groups, ELSSA, DataQuest, 2.Revision of the LEA and School Plans, e.g. Title III Plan  CCSS- ELA and mathematics  New ELD Standards 3.Reallocation of resources  Critical to ensure that revised plans are sustainable and able to be faithfully implemented.  Align resources to meet identified needs. 4.Professional development and support for staff  Include sufficient professional development and support for staff in the revised plans.  Is your plan actually “do-able”; don’t fill your plan with great strategies that are impossible to implement. Plan out over a period of time, e.g. 3 year implementation. 5.Faithful implementation of the revised plans 6.Ongoing monitoring, analysis, and support for improvement plans 1/21/2014

LCAP Template Comprehensive planning tool Guiding questions for each section One goal may address multiple priorities Three Sections 1.Stakeholder Engagement 2.Goals and Progress Indicators 3.Actions, Services and Expenditures 1/21/2014
