The annual and ongoing engagement of community members is a key part of the LCAP development process.  It is important that the goals, actions, expenditures, metrics, and targets within the LCAP are informed by the voices of students, families, staff, and other community members.   

Input to inform the annual LCAP development process is always welcomed and appreciated.  Input can be provided directly at any time at lcap@scusd.edu. 

Examples of  district community engagement activities have included community town halls, surveys, presentations in established forums, solicitation of comments on posted drafts, listening sessions, and meetings with established district committees/groups. 

Examples of district committees/groups that have been involved in recent engagement cycles include:

• African American Advisory Board (AAAB)/African American Achievement Taskforce (AAATF) 
• American Indian Education Program Parent Committee and Native Youth of Sacramento
• Community Advisory Committee (CAC)
• District English Learner Advisory Committee (DELAC)
• LCAP Parent Advisory Committee (PAC)
• Student Advisory Council (SAC)

These groups are critical in advocating on behalf of specific student groups and representing the needs and interests of students and families across the various regions of the district.  The groups individually and collectively work to amplify the voices and share the experiences of students, families, and staff.
