District presents draft LCAP; staff will accept community feedback through June 18
Summary
Superintendent and staff reviewed the draft Local Control and Accountability Plan and explained metrics, stakeholder outreach and the three‑year cycle; staff said more than 1,800 parents/community members and over 3,500 students provided input during the spring survey process.
The Mount Diablo Unified School District presented its draft Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) during a public hearing on June 11, explaining the document’s purpose, the plan‑do‑study‑act cycle and the district’s goals for standards‑based instruction, staff development, family engagement and targeted supports for focal student groups.
Assistant Superintendent Samantha Allen and Christina Filios, who coordinates LCAP work, summarized the draft plan’s four primary goals and an equity multiplier goal. They said the draft: (1) retains the district’s core goals for instruction and college‑and‑career readiness, (2) adds baseline measures for local STAR/MCAS screeners and a new state metric for long‑term English learners (LTELs), and (3) aligns a set of actions and expenditures with those goals. Staff emphasized that the LCAP is a three‑year plan and presented the continuous improvement cycles used by sites and departments.
Filios said the district collected survey input in the spring from more than 1,800 parent/community members and more than 3,500 students in grades 5–12. Key community priorities reported by staff included class‑size reduction, positive school climate and expanded family engagement. Staff noted new state requirements for using unspent Learning Recovery Emergency Block Grant (LREBG) funds to conduct needs assessments and to align any remaining LREBG uses with LCAP actions; staff said those one‑time funds are tentatively allotted to several actions in the plan.
Public comment on the draft was limited; Sean Schneider urged the district to expand face‑to‑face family engagement and to make the LCAP easier to read for parents. Staff said they will accept public feedback through Wednesday, June 18 at 4 p.m. (via lcap@mdusd.org or an online survey) and will return to the board with a final LCAP on June 25.
Why it matters: The LCAP guides how the district allocates supplemental and concentrated funds for unduplicated pupils and sets measurable goals tied to state priorities.
What’s next: Staff will collect comments through June 18 and present the final LCAP for board consideration on June 25.
