At the Wednesday, February 21st Board of Education Meeting a Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) and Budget Overview for Parents (BOP) Mid-Year Update presentation was shared. This presentation reviewed mid-year outcome data related to metrics identified in our District's current LCAP, and available midyear expenditure and implementation data on actions identified in the current LCAP. The District's four LCAP goals are:

🎯 Goal 1: Implement targeted actions and services that support positive student outcomes. (Student Focused)

🎯 Goal 2: Ensure highly qualified and effective staff are provided with targeted professional development, and have an understanding that all job responsibilities are structured to support positive student outcomes. (Internal Focused)

🎯 Goal 3: Provide communication and targeted outreach that informs the community of programs & opportunities that support positive student outcomes. (Community Focused)

🎯 Goal 4: Enhance the social, emotional and physical well-being for all students through targeted actions that support positive student outcomes. (School/Community focused)

• Human Growth and Development is about the process of growth beginning with pre-adolescence through adolescence. At the elementary and middle school levels, a program is presented to students in grades 4, 5, and 6 to provide them with a fact-based understanding of the changes in their physical development that is aligned to the California Health Education Standards (2008).
• The Human Growth and Development presentations were first approved by the CVUSD Board of Education in 1986, with the most current versions approved by the Board of Education in December 2021. Click here to learn more.
• In accordance with California Education Code 51240, parents can opt their child out of viewing the video by providing written notice to their child’s teacher.
