Summary
The Beverly Hills Unified School District board approved the district’s 2025–26 Local Control and Accountability Plan, a compliance document that describes goals and spending for district subpopulations required by the California Department of Education.
The Beverly Hills Unified School District board voted to adopt the district’s 2025–26 Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP), a document districts submit to the California Department of Education to describe goals, actions and spending intended to support key student subgroups.
Doctor Seaman summarized the LCAP as a four‑year plan informed by parent feedback, a SWOT analysis, and multiple stakeholder engagements. "What the LCAP is is it's a combination of antiquated data...it is to demonstrate to the California Department of Education that we support our subpopulations, such as our EL students," he said, noting the document focuses on subpopulations such as English learners, Title I students, homeless students and foster youth and that some data are a year or more behind.
Trustees discussed the indicator self‑reflection and how school‑site practices such as parent‑teacher conferences are represented in the document. Trustee Stewart asked staff to clarify language around two‑way communication expectations between families and educators and how the district tracks parent engagement.
The board approved the LCAP on the motion and second recorded in the minutes.
Ending: Staff said further indicators and updated data will be reflected on the California Dashboard as new state data are released and that families will receive student‑level assessment access through the Aeries portal as state results are published.
