Big thanks to Lucas Elementary Dual Language Academy for their student writing on display at the District Office (as pictured)! 🦃🍁😍
Classified and Certificated staff took part in an Educational Partner Meeting where the topic was the district's Local Control Accountability Plan, or LCAP. This three-year plan outlines the district's goals, actions, and expenditures to support positive outcomes for all students. All educational partner groups have a voice in the LCAP, including students and community members who met earlier in the month. For a summary of the conversation, check out the 8-minute podcast, CUSD Educational Partner Update, at https://www.buzzsprout.com/2031616/episodes/16144155.
