WHAT IS THE LCAP?

The Local Control and Accountability Plan or LCAP is a critical part of California's new Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF). It is a three-year plan that is updated annually. The plan describes the charter school's key goals for students as well as the specific actions (with expenditures) the school will take to achieve the goals and the means (metrics) used to measure progress.

The LCAP addresses the needs of all students, including specific student groups, and all charter schools and districts must specifically address English learners, foster youth, and low-income students. In addition, the LCAP must address the state of California's eight priority areas that include student academic achievement, school climate, student access to a broad curriculum, and parent engagement. The charter school's spending plan aligns to these academic priorities.
