Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP)
PCOE's suggested LCAP timeline is a tool for local educational agencies to set goals, plan actions and leverage resources to meet those goals to improve student outcomes.
This document is a three-year plan that describes the goals, actions, services, and expenditures to support positive student outcomes that address state and local priorities. Our LCAP provides an opportunity for local educational agencies (LEAs) to share their stories of how, what, and why programs and services are selected to meet their local needs.
Updates for 2020-21 School Year
Senate Bill (SB) 98
establishes that the Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) and an annual
update to the LCAP are not required for the 2020-21 school year. SB 98
supersedes the requirement to develop and adopt an LCAP by December 15, 2020.
It also establishes California EC Section 43509 and the Learning Continuity and
Attendance Plan requirements for the 2020-21 school year.
The Learning Continuity and Attendance Plan is a key part of the
overall budget package for K-12 that seeks to address funding stability for
schools while providing information at the local educational agency (LEA) level
for how student learning continuity will be addressed during the COVID-19
crisis in the 2020–21 school year. The provisions for the plan were approved by
the Governor and Legislature in June in SB 98 and can be found in EC Section 43509.
