Board approves 2025–26 LCAP, affirms core goals of services and student achievement
Summary
Trustees approved the district's Local Control Accountability Plan for 2025–26, reiterating the plan's three core goals — basic services, academic achievement and climate/culture — and discussed how LCAP-aligned spending maps to overall expenditures.
The Middletown Unified Board approved the 2025–26 Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP), reaffirming the plan's three core goals: basic services, academic achievement and climate and culture.
District staff explained that while some positions and expenses can be included under LCAP goals, not all teacher or principal salaries are counted there; the LCAP is intended to focus on investments that directly support the plan's priorities. As staff put it, "this 1 you do have to or last week... this is again the our same 3 goals of basic services, academic achievement, climate, culture," identifying the framework trustees used to evaluate trade-offs.
Trustees asked for clarity about the amount of total expenditures assigned to LCAP initiatives and the relationship between multi-year projections and LCAP spending. After discussion, Chris moved to approve the 25–26 LCAP; the motion passed 5-0.
