Dear Parents and Community Representatives, Im excited to announce the formation of a DJUSD Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) Advisory Committee. This is for the 2014-15 revision of our LCAP. Your voice matters as we transition into this new space of Local Control. In the spirit of partnership, I am assembling the LCAP Advisory Committee with responsibility to understand the contents of our LCAP, track and monitor implementation and work with us to effectively communicate progress to key stakeholder groups. Our vision for LCAP is to create an equitable education system that ensures high levels of success for ALL students Our LCAP outcomes are important because they unify our focus and clarify our responsibility to ensure that ALL students are equipped with the skills and knowledge necessary to be college and career ready. We will attain our LCAP goals and outcomes by expanding our professional capacities; strategically aligning our actions with our desired outcomes; and appropriately allocating resources and support. The LCAP Advisory Committee will meet with me five (5) times during the remainder of this 2014-15 academic year. I plan to hold our first meeting Wednesday, December 10, at 6:00 pm at the District Office. The remaining dates are January 15, February 26, and dates in March and April still to be determined. We are laying a solid foundation upon which to build a brighter future for all DJUSD students and I ask you to consider joining us in this effort. You may view our Strategic Plan at (click here) and the LCAP at (click here). Additional information about each document is also available on our district website. Please communicate your interest and availability to participate on this committee to [email protected]. I thank you for considering this opportunity and look forward to hearing from you.
