Summary

Student forums and parent feedback prioritized targeted tutoring, greater counselor access and more college/career exposure; staff said the district will keep or protect many existing support services while exploring expansion where funding allows.

Board members reviewed themes drawn from student and parent forums: students repeatedly asked for more academic support such as in‑class remediation and targeted tutoring, better access to counselors and increased opportunities for college visits and career exposure. The presenter said those themes appeared in multiple forums and will inform the draft LCAP goals.

Administrators also described specific supports the district funds now — additional counseling positions, AVID programming and expanded course offerings — and noted some discretionary site funds or professional learning may be reduced to preserve direct student services if budget constraints require reprioritization. "It's mostly access to a counselor," a presenter said when summarizing student feedback.
