Local Control and Accountability Plan and Annual Update Template
The Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) and Annual Update Template shall be used to provide details regarding local educational agencies’
(LEAs) actions and expenditures to support pupil outcomes and overall performance pursuant to Education Code sections 52060, 52066, 47605,
47605.5, and 47606.5. The LCAP and Annual Update Template must be completed by all LEAs each year.

For school districts, pursuant to Education Code section 52060, the LCAP must describe, for the school district and each school within the district, goals
and specific actions to achieve those goals for all pupils and each subgroup of pupils identified in Education Code section 52052, including pupils with
disabilities, for each of the state priorities and any locally identified priorities.

For county offices of education, pursuant to Education Code section 52066, the LCAP must describe, for each county office of education‐operated school
and program, goals and specific actions to achieve those goals for all pupils and each subgroup of pupils identified in Education Code section 52052,
including pupils with disabilities, who are funded through the county office of education Local Control Funding Formula as identified in Education Code
section 2574 (pupils attending juvenile court schools, on probation or parole, or mandatorily expelled) for each of the state priorities and any locally
identified priorities. School districts and county offices of education may additionally coordinate and describe in their LCAPs services provided to pupils
funded by a school district but attending county‐operated schools and programs, including special education programs.

Charter schools, pursuant to Education Code sections 47605, 47605.5, and 47606.5, must describe goals and specific actions to achieve those goals for
all pupils and each subgroup of pupils identified in Education Code section 52052, including pupils with disabilities, for each of the state priorities as
applicable and any locally identified priorities. For charter schools, the inclusion and description of goals for state priorities in the LCAP may be modified
to meet the grade levels served and the nature of the programs provided, including modifications to reflect only the statutory requirements explicitly
applicable to charter schools in the Education Code.

The LCAP is intended to be a comprehensive planning tool. Accordingly, in developing goals, specific actions, and expenditures, LEAs should carefully
consider how to reflect the services and related expenses for their basic instructional program in relationship to the state priorities. LEAs may reference
and describe actions and expenditures in other plans and funded by a variety of other fund sources when detailing goals, actions, and expenditures
related to the state and local priorities. LCAPs must be consistent with school plans submitted pursuant to Education Code section 64001. The
information contained in the LCAP, or annual update, may be supplemented by information contained in other plans (including the LEA plan pursuant
to Section 1112 of Subpart 1 of Part A of Title I of Public Law 107‐110) that are incorporated or referenced as relevant in this document.

For each section of the template, LEAs shall comply with instructions and should use the guiding questions as prompts (but not limits) for completing
the information as required by statute. Guiding questions do not require separate narrative responses. However, the narrative response and goals and
actions should demonstrate each guiding question was considered during the development of the plan. Data referenced in the LCAP must be consistent
with the school accountability report card where appropriate. LEAs may resize pages or attach additional pages as necessary to facilitate completion of
the LCAP.
