Transcript LCFF/LCAP Study Session Irvine Unified School District

February 4, 2014
Outcomes for Today
 Better understanding of the Local Control
Funding Formula (LCFF)
 Review the process for developing the
Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP)
in IUSD with input from stakeholders
2
Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF)
The LCFF is a new funding mechanism intended to:
• Be simple and transparent
• Provide maximum flexibility
Based on specific considerations:
• Create additional resources for students with greater needs
• Provide for local decision making and stakeholder
involvement
• Increase accountability
• Align budget with accountability plans

CA School Finance Before and with LCFF
Before LCFF
With LCFF
Revenue Limits vary from district to
district.
Base Funding - The same for all
districts and charters – differentiated
by grade span.
Categorical Programs required
districts to establish specific programs
and services with numerous and
sometimes inconsistent or duplicate
requirements. At one point, there
were over 100 separate programs.
Supplemental Funding - Equal to 20%
of the base for the unduplicated count
of English Learners (EL), low-income
students and foster youth.
Concentration Funding - Additional
funding of 50% of the base provided
to districts and charters with 55% or
more of their students who are EL,
low-income or foster youth.

How does the LCFF work?
1. Base grant – per pupil
Under the Local
Control Funding
Formula, funding
is appropriated
for education in
four ways.
2. Supplemental grants for
English-Learner, low
income, and foster
students
3. Concentration grants for
districts with high-needs
pupils at 55 percent or
more of enrollment
4. Other funds outside of
LCFF, such as special
education
In future years, all grants will be adjusted by a COLA

IUSD LCFF Funding
 In the governor’s plan, school district will be fully funded by
2020-21. This is the amount referred to as the LCFF Target
 IUSD’s 12/13 actual funding is referred to as the LCFF Floor
 The difference between the Target & Floor is referred to as
the LCFF Gap
 Each year, a portion of the LCFF Gap will be funded. The %
will be set by the governor. For 13/14, the rate is projected
to be 11.78%
 For IUSD, this means an additional $9,068,157 in funds

What does LCFF Mean for the
Irvine Community?
 Focused funding for students with the greatest needs
o English Learners, foster youth and low-income students
 A broader definition of school success – school district
won’t be evaluated by test scores alone
o LCFF requires schools to develop plans to improve student
engagement, increase parent involvement, and create more
positive learning environments on campus
 More local control – School leaders and parents will have
greater influence over spending and will have flexibility at the
local level to create academic programs, services and
budgets to meet the unique needs of students
o District budgets are required to be aligned with academic plans
(Local Control Accountability Plans- LCAP) starting in July 2014
12
The Plan - Local Control Accountability Plan –
will Align Planning and Budgeting
Past: Plans Followed Budgets
(Reactive)
Future: Plans Drive Budget
(Proactive)
• The governor proposed a budget in
January; districts calculated what
schools would receive
• The planning cycle for the next
school year begins in the Fall before
the budget is fixed
• Schools and districts developed
and adopted a budget quickly, in a
reactive mode
• Planning begins with a review of the
data
• There was not sufficient time to
build community buy-in or input for
the budget
• The longer planning cycle allows time
for community engagement
• Schools then completed the Single
Plan for Student Achievement for
compliance reasons after budget
was finalized
• Goals and priorities are in place and
shape how resources are allocated
when details become available
13
Aligning Budgets and Academic Programs
Develop Goals and
Priorities

community needs
• Revisit district, school
goals, revise and adopt
• Identify and prioritize
strategies and
activities
Implement
• Begin implementation
of school and district
plans
• Training and PD
calendar for staff
• Continue to engage
community on
implementation
Ongoing
stakeholder
engagement
and data
analyzing
Budget Developed

• Fund high priority
strategies
• Submit LCAP
budgets to COE
• Gain consensus with
stakeholders on
school budget
• Plan staffing
adjustments
Finalize School Plans
