SAUSD is committed to ensuring District resources are used to meet the needs of all students. Our Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) addresses the district’s vision for student learning, and demonstrates how the district’s budget supports those goals. All parents, students, and staff are invited to share input and suggestions. Contact your school to learn how you can become involved in LCAP input sessions, or take our survey by scanning the QR code provided in the attached image.
