The Local Control and Accountability Plan or LCAP is a critical part of California's Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF). San Diego Unified has been actively engaged in the development of a three-year Local Control and Accountability Plan and has held public meetings to gather input from parents, students, staff and other stakeholders to create it. This robust stakeholder engagement has helped inform the process for developing the 2018-2019 LCAP draft. The draft of the district's LCAP will be presented in a public workshop on Thursday, June 7.
