Feedback Sought for SDUSD Local Control & Accountability Plan (LCAP)

This three-year, district-level plan describes the school district’s key goals for students as well as the specific actions (with expenditures) the district will take to achieve the goals and the means (metrics) used to measure progress. The school district would like community feedback on its Draft Plan and has put out this survey to allow parents and other community members to make comments and suggestions on the plan.
Click here for more information about the LCAP. Parents and members of our school community are welcome to submit feedback on any aspect of the LCAP draft. However, because the document is long, the Scripps Ranch Schools Committee has suggested that each of our Scripps Ranch area schools in San Diego Unified focus on a different section of the plan, with Miramar Ranch undertaking review specifically of Goal 4: Positive School Environment, Climate, and Culture - with Equity at the Core and Support for the Whole Child (LCAP draft sections 4.1 through 4.8).
