3.  In 2013 California adopted a new funding formula for school districts—Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF)  Collapsed the majority of categorical funding sources in the LCFF  Shifts more of the decision-making to the school district level  Requires that supplemental and concentration funds be used to “increase or improve services to El/LI pupils”  Requires districts to adopt LCAPs showing how funds will be spent to provide high-quality education programs and improve student outcomes.
