WE NEED YOUR HELP, PLEASE!

Dear SVUSD Community:

We need your help.

As you may already know, California school districts are mostly funded by a new state formula called the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF). One of LCFF’s mandates is that we issue an annual “goals” plan for our district. This is called the Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP). Last year was the launch of LCAP, and, based on the work by a special committee made up of all kinds of district stakeholders, as well as answers from a comprehensive survey on our district’s needs, we developed a five-part plan with three-year benchmarks that we are required to work toward. Then, each year, we repeat the survey to mark our progress in our community’s eyes.

This is where you come in.

The link below will take you to the 2015 LCAP Survey. Since we already have our goals in place, this year’s survey is much simpler. It should take less than five minutes to answer. Please take this SURVEY and help us to do the best possible job for our students. If you’re interested in last year’s survey and results, you can find that information at the link below as well. The survey is confidential. We are required to provide a breakdown of what kind of stakeholder answered the survey based on your response, but we don’t know who answered. There is a separate link on the same page for a SPANISH SURVEY.

Thank you very much for your help. This notice will also be circulating through the community and directly to parents through ParentLink.
