PLEASE HELP – FEEDBACK NEEDED

May 1, 2015

Dear Parents/students:

Last year, we surveyed our families and students to identify goals for the school as part of the new Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) that the State of California implemented as the basis for school funding. At that time, all schools were required to develop, adopt, and annually update a three-year Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP). We are now at year two of the LCAP and that the school is in the process of updating the plan for the upcoming year to submit to the California Department of Education. As an essential part of this process, we are asking for your feedback again. Please click here to help us identify if there are any additional services/actions that are needed to meet goals identified last year:

Your input is valued by Springs Charter Schools. We appreciate your assistance with this important task!

Sincerely,

Amy Podratz

Assistant Superintendent, Business and Administrative Operations
