LCAP

  • LCAP & Accountability Series - LCAP Template Update - February 27, 2018

    Now is the time to register and take a refresher training on the LCAP Template.

    1. Technical Assistance:
    • The MCOE LCAP team will be available for technical assistance to districts.  These sessions were noted as being helpful and productive.  While we are providing a specific window for these sessions to occur, this does not preclude giving a shout out for any needs that may occur at other times throughout the year.  We are here when you need us. 
    • The technical assistance session window will run from February 26 – March 23.  Times for sessions will be arranged according the district schedule.

    1. Draft LCAP Review:
    • We will be able to review your draft LCAPs.  Please have them to us on or before May 1.  We will be arranging review sessions with districts between May 2nd through 15th. 

    1. DTS:
    • We are confirming with DTS that all LCAPs have been rolled forward and are ready for any editing on the annual update and to capture any stakeholder engagement you have going on right now.

    1. Template Changes:
    • We are waiting to hear if there are any confirmed changes to the template secondary to ESSA for your LCAPs this year.  We will keep you posted on what these changes will be and how they will impact the district.  We can address some of these at the technical assistance sessions as well.

    Below you will find a calendar for January – March from which to guide your district team and the work you are doing to keep your plans current.
        

    Please contact Laura Trahan at ltrahan@marinschools.org if you have any questions about this email or your LCAP process in general.  As always, we look forward to our working with you.
