Board reviews 2025–26 LCAP framework and budget overview
Summary
SBCEO staff presented the 2025–26 Local Control and Accountability Plan, describing a three-year planning window, five goals that include supports for juvenile court/community schools and transitional youth services, and a budgeted allocation for base and increased/improved services.
Bridget Gobletts introduced the Santa Barbara County Office of Education’s proposed 2025–26 Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP), telling the board that "The LCAP overall is a 3 year planning document." The presentation framed the LCAP as having four main components — a budget overview for parents, the 25–26 LCAP with goals/actions/metrics, contributing action/expenditure tables, and the required instructions — and explained the public-review steps and CDE review that follow the presentation.
Staff explained that the LCAP covers programs unique to county offices—juvenile court and community schools (JCCS) and transitional youth services—and sets five goals (three focused on JCCS and one maintenance goal for countywide services), plus a focus goal tied to equity-multiplier funds. The LCAP materials include an action-table budget showing estimated actuals for 24–25, planned 25–26 expenditures, and the allocation of increased/improved services for unduplicated students.
