LOCAL CONTROL ACCOUNTABILITY PLANS CHARTER SCHOOL INFORMATION Developed by the Shasta County Office of Education, in conjunction with the CISC Accountability Subcommittee PLAN FOR TODAY • Brief Overview of LCFF • Classification of Students • LCAP Adoption Process • Review the 8 State Priorities • Core Services BIG IDEAS • LCFF requires the LCAP in shifting control of LEA budgets from state categoricals to the local level. Plans • AB 97 specifies the required components of the accountability plans as they apply to districts and charter schools. • LCAP outlines a new set of rules relating to school district and charter transparency and accountability in relation to how funds will be spent to provide high-quality educational programs. Outcomes for Students Funds LOCAL CONTROL FUNDING FORMULA OVERVIEW LOCAL CONTROL FUNDING FORMULA • Historic reform to education funding • Redistribution of funds. • Funding based on grade level grants and demographic data for each district • Home to School Transportation maintained at 12/13 expenditure level • Funding targets will be phased in over an estimated 8 year period • Adds New Local Control Accountability Plan 1 REVISITING THE LOCAL CONTROL FUNDING FORMULA (LCFF) ADJUSTMENTS Grade Level $ Per Student Base Amount Demographics (Low income, English Learner, and/or Foster This slide shows images that illustrate how the Local Control Youth) Funding Formula works. LCFF provides the same amount of funding per student with two adjustments (1) grade level and (2) demographics. • Greatly simplifies state funding HOW IS LCFF DIFFERENT FROM WHAT WAS IN PLACE UNDER REVENUE LIMITS? • Simplify funding • Revenue limits and most state categoricals are eliminated • Charter schools will receive funding based on the students they serve, with greater flexibility to use these funds to improve outcomes of students • 8 years to achieve full funding based on growth projections. Assumes continued state economic growth.

LCFF LAO Report: http://www.lao.ca.gov/reports/2013/edu/lcff/lcff-072913.aspx LCFF AT FULL IMPLEMENTATION Funding amounts will increase annually by COLA LINK: http://www.cde.ca.gov/fg/aa/lc/lcffoverview.asp PHASE IN OF FUNDING 14 12 LCFF Gap 10 8 6 4 Transportation & TIIG Transportation & TIIG Supplemental / Concentration CSR / CTE add ons State categoricals Revenue Limit Base Grant 2 0 Old Model LCFF Target 2013/14 GAP funding = 11.78%. Expected full phase in over 8 years depending on state economic growth. PHASE IN OF FUNDING • The amount of revenue limit received per ADA in 2012-13 is the base for LCFF. • Total revenues received will fluctuate proportionate to changes in ADA. TEAM DISCUSSION How does LCFF affect your charter school funding? What are talking points you are using with stakeholders to describe this new funding model? 5 minutes LCFF: STUDENT CLASSIFICATION CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS English Learners (EL) • Based on Home language survey and California English Language Development Test (CELDT) • No time limit for funding • Reclassified students (Fluent English Proficient) will no longer generate additional funding Low Income (LI) • Qualify based on free and reduced price meals • Foster Youth are automatically eligible SUBGROUPS Racial/Ethnic Subgroups* • Black or African American • American Indian or Alaska Native • Asian • Filipino • Hispanic or Latino • Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander • White • Two or more races Other Subgroups • • • • English Learners* Low Income* Students with Disabilities* Foster Youth = 15 students (new) *Numerically significant student subgroups in the charter school = 30 students CALPADS DATA COLLECTION • Will continue, but no additional data will be added to the system • If Free and Reduced Lunch forms are received from families up until February 7, 2014, you may updated CALPADS for that eligible student. • Eligibility determination process need not be complete at this time – prior to CALPADS is certified. FREE/REDUCED LUNCH PROGRAM FOR PROVISION 2 & 3 SCHOOLS To be counted as eligible for LI in LCFF, students must: • Meet income eligibility criteria for the National School Lunch Program, or • Be directly certified to receive free meals, or • Be categorically eligible This process does not affect students’ ability to receive a free lunch under Provision 2 & 3. LCAP ADOPTION PROCESS ADOPTING AND UPDATING THE LCAP 2 3 1 Consultation with: • Teachers • Principals • Other School personnel • Bargaining Units • Pupils • Parents Present for review and comment to: • Parent advisory committee • English learner parent advisory committee • The administrator must respond in writing to comments received Opportunity for public input: • Notice of the opportunity to submit written comment • The administrator must respond in writing to comments received 4 Adoption of Plan: • Adopted concurrent with the LEA’s budget • Submitted to Authorizer for approval • Posted on district website • COE posts LCAP for each district/school or a link to the LCAP SIMILARITIES FOR CHARTER SCHOOLS • The petition for a charter school will include an LCAP that: • establishes goals for each of the eight state priorities (and any identified local priorities) and • specifies the actions the charter school will take to meet these goals. • The LCAP must be updated annually (by the charter school’s governing board). • Charter schools are required to consult with school employees, parents, and students when developing their plans and annual updates. DIFFERENCES FOR CHARTER SCHOOLS • Charter Schools are exempt from the specific requirements to solicit public comment and hold public hearings. • Charter Schools do not have their plans approved by the County Office. ED CODE ON STAKEHOLDER INVOLVEMENT “A governing board of a school district shall consult with teachers, principals, administrators, other school personnel, local bargaining units of the school district, parents, and pupils in developing a local control and accountability plan.” [EC 52060(g)] EC 52063: (a) (1) The governing board of a school district shall establish a parent advisory committee to provide advice to the governing board of the school district and the superintendent of the school district regarding the requirements of this article. (2) A parent advisory committee shall include parents or legal guardians of pupils to whom one or more of the definitions in Section 42238.01 apply. (3) This subdivision shall not require the governing board of the school district to establish a new parent advisory committee if the governing board of the school district already has established a parent advisory committee that meets the requirements of this subdivision, including any committee established to meet the requirements of the federal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-110) pursuant to Section 1112 of Subpart 1 of Part A of Title I of that act. (b) (1) The governing board of a school district shall establish an English learner parent advisory committee if the enrollment of the school district includes at least 15 percent English learners and the school district enrolls at least 50 pupils who are English learners. (2) This subdivision shall not require the governing board of the school district to establish a new English learner parent advisory committee if the governing board of the school district already has established a committee that meets the requirements of this subdivision. STATE BOARD CONSIDERATIONS ON STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT • How have parents, community members, students, and other stakeholders been engaged and involved in developing, reviewing, and supporting implementation of the LCAP? • How has the involvement of stakeholders supported improved performance and outcomes for students? • Are engaged parents and students representative of the school community? • How have the English learner and parent advisory committees been engaged? • What type of documentation and/or training has been provided to parent and community stakeholders about the budget, state priorities, and other information useful to engaging in the development of the LCAP? • What form of outreach to parents has been taken and has it yielded results? • How are parents engaged by sites in support of the state priorities and goals identified in the LCAP? • How were teachers, principals, administrators other school personnel, and local bargaining units involved in the development of the LCAP? • How are governmental agencies engaged by LEAs to support effective partnerships to provide students with services? PARENT ADVISORY Must include parents/guardians that meet one or more of these criteria Parent Advisory Low Income rep EL Parent Advisory 15% ELs AND Foster Youth rep English Learner rep At least 50 EL pupils Pre-existing committees can be used if requirements are met: Parent Advisory Committee ELAC/DELAC LCAP TIMELINE Draft to SBE in November 2013 01.31.14 SBE Regulations 03.31.14 SBE Template 06.30.14 LEAs & Charters adopt LCAP 10.01.15 SBE Rubrics (intro to SBE in Jan) COHERENCE 3 year plan, updated annually, effective 2014-15 LCAP & AUTHORIZERS • “The authorizer does not "approve" the LCAP - it is used to provide an annual update of attainment of goals/expenditure of funds and is provided to the charter school's governing board and the authorizer pursuant to ECS 47604.33. From the authorizer standpoint, it simply provides additional information and authorizers still must exercise due diligence and have the ability to take action/revoke as needed.” [Elisa Wynne, CDE] EXISTING CHARTERS • “Existing charter schools will be required to address the new provisions in EC 47605 during their renewal process. • “The charter LCAP should utilize the SBE adopted template and provide additional detail beyond what is provided in the petition.” [Elisa Wynne, CDE] NEW CHARTERS “New charter schools who have submitted petitions after new petition requirements in EC 47605 became law on July 1, 2013 must include the new petition requirements that include addressing the eight state priorities as related to the grade level served and the nature of their program.” [Elisa Wynne, CDE] ANNUAL LCAP UPDATE Goals Expenditures • Review any changes in applicability of goals from prior year. A list and description of expenditures for the fiscal year: • Implementing the specific actions included in the LCAP as a result of the review and assessment. • Serving identified students: EL, LI, and FY. • Review the progress toward goals. GOALS • First consideration in planning process: Where do you, as a charter school, want to be in 3+ years in relation to: • Student achievement? • Programs for students? • Revisit current vision to see if it truly describes where you want to focus your time and resources. LCAP ELEMENTS NEEDS ANALYSIS GOALS PROGRESS TOWARD GOALS ACTIONS • Overview: State Priority • Potential Data • Team: Initial Thoughts & Next Steps TELLING YOUR STORY The LCAP planning process should allow each LEA and Charter School to tell their story of: • Where you currently are (Needs Assessments), • Your vision for the future (Goals), • How you plan to take steps each year to achieve these goals (Progress toward Goals), • The actions and associated budget needed for the first year’s steps (Actions). 8 STATE PRIORITIES 8 STATE PRIORITIES 1.

Different from Districts • This assessment using rubrics is to be conducted by the charter authorizer. • A charter school is required to receive support from its authorizer if, based on the intervention rubric, it does not improve outcomes in 3 of 4 consecutive years for 3 or more subgroups in more than one state or local priority area. PERSISTENTLY FAILING CHARTER SCHOOLS Authorizer State Board Can revoke a charter if the CCEE provides the school with support and determines: 1. Has not or will not be able to implement the CCEE recommendations; and 2. Student academic performance is persistently or severely poor • Can revoke a charter if the school fails to improve student outcomes across multiple state and local priorities ADVISORY COMMISSION ON CHARTER SCHOOLS • October 8, 2013 Meeting – Item 3 Attachment 1 • AB 97 Changes to Ed Code related to Charter School Programs • LINK: http://www.cde.ca.gov/be/cc/cs/accsnotice100813.asp SUMMARY OF 6 KEY NEW ACCOUNTABILITY ELEMENTS 1. Supplemental and Concentration grant funds received under LCFF must be spent in accordance with regulations adopted by the SBE. 1. Charter documents must now include additional descriptions of the educational program and pupil outcome sections that define annual goals for subgroup performance in applicable state priority areas, as specified, and align pupil outcomes to these priorities. Information should be consistent with how it is presented in the School Accountability Report Card. SUMMARY OF 6 KEY NEW ACCOUNTABILITY ELEMENTS 3. A Local Control Accountability Plan shall be developed in accordance with a template adopted by the state board. Beginning July 1, 2015, the plan shall be reviewed and updated annually, including a budget to implement the actions described in the plan and submitted to, but not approved by, its authorizer. Charter schools shall engage the school community in the plan development and review process. 4. A charter school that fails to improve outcomes for three or more subgroups in three out of four consecutive years may receive technical assistance and intervention from its authorizer or a newly established California Collaborative for Educational Excellence (CCEE). If intervention is unsuccessful, as specified, the charter may be revoked without appeal. SUMMARY OF 6 KEY NEW ACCOUNTABILITY ELEMENTS 5. The CCEE will advise and assist districts and charter schools in achieving the goals in their plans, and will include individuals, organizations and local education agencies with expertise and a record of success in improving education. 5. Many details of the plan development, review and monitoring requirements will be worked out in regulations to be adopted by the SBE.
