Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) Frequently Asked Questions

Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) Frequently Asked Questions

In the weeks and months since the adoption of the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) regulations and Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) template by the State Board of Education (SBE), school districts have received a number of questions related to the LCAP. School Services of California has gathered some of these questions and answers here for our stakeholders to review.
What is Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF)?

What is Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF)?

LCFF stands for Local Control Funding Formula. Local – that means us! LCFF is a change in how the State of California funds school districts and the accountability structure that supports it. Basically, it is a change in how schools receive money from the state and how they will invest it with results. By doing this, the state is moving away from funding school districts as a “one size fits most” approach, to a new approach that provides extra support for students who need it most. This change is a major shift from the way public schools used to be funded, and will require some time to transition into this new funding system starting in the 2013‐14 academic year.
When does Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) start?

When does Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) start?

LCFF was approved by the California Legislature and Governor Brown in June 2013, and is effective for the 2013-14 academic year.

This funding will be fully implemented by the 2010-2021 school year.

Under the previous model, there were more than 40 categories of funding, each for a specific purpose identified by the State of California.  The LCFF model has basically established three forms of funding, with more local discretion on determining how the funds are spent.
