Our school board members approved WCCUSD’s Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) for the upcoming 2017-18 school year.

Last week, our state launched the California School Dashboard with the goal of creating a new way to measure school quality and monitor student achievement.

At this week’s meeting, our school board swore in two new members: Tom Panas and Mister Phillips. They also discussed the College Readiness Block Grant and approved a resolution that supports students and families who are undocumented, Muslim, or people of color. 

At the September 21st meeting, the board approved the Final Phase II Forensic Audit Report and allocated $1.1 million in one-time “carryover” funds to support students through the 2016-17 LCAP.

In early September 2016, West Contra Costa Unified School District released the Preliminary Phase II Forensic Audit Report, conducted by Certified Public Accounting firm Vicenti, Lloyd & Stutzman (VLS). This forensic audit is a key step forward for our community, providing the opportunity to develop healthy and transparent financial practices in service of students.

The September 7th Board of Education meeting marked our school board’s first gathering of the 2016-17 school year. The board was presented with an overview of our students’ SBAC test results from 2015-16.

At the June 29 meeting, our school board members discussed an upcoming Budget Transparency Tool, adopted the 2016-2017 Budget, and approved the 2016-17 Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP).

During public comment at the April 27th WCCUSD Board of Education meeting, we shared the findings from our Community Survey on the Next Superintendent with our school board members. Check out the survey findings!
