Local Control Accountability Plan
Focusses on economically disadvantaged students, English learners, students with disabilities, foster youth, homeless. Required metrics Smarter Balanced assessments, ELA and math, percent met or above standard and individual student growth (grades 3-8) Results on the Next Generation Science Standards Progress on the English language proficiency assessment Graduation rate (secondary) Measure of student engagement (suspension rate and chronic absenteeism. College and career readiness Healthy kids survey
65
Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) Priority Areas
Student Achievement: measuring success through test scores, English proficiency, graduation rates and college preparedness Implementation of Common Core state standards: transitioning to the new academic standards Course Access: ensuring all students have access to classes that prepare them for college and career, regardless of what school they attend or where they live Basic Services: guaranteeing well-maintained school facilities and up-to-date materials
66
Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) Priority Areas
Student Engagement: help kids feel more enthusiastic about learning so they miss fewer days and are more likely to graduate School Climate: promoting a calm, positive and productive school environment Parent Involvement: participating in school district decision-making Other Student Outcomes: physical education, the arts, and other areas of study
