Background:
Staff will present an overview of the Learning Continuity and Attendance Plan for public hearing.
On June 29, 2020, Governor Newsom signed Senate Bill 98 (SB 98) into law. Although SB 98 is a budget bill, it also includes requirements regarding distance learning, in-person instruction, attendance instructional minutes among other items.
SB 98 also mandates the creation of a Learning Continuity and Attendance Plan (LCP) in lieu of the 2020-21 Local Control Accountability Plan which was originally required by the Governor’s Executive Order N-56-20 in April 2020.
The Learning Continuity Plan memorializes the planning process for the 2020–21 school year.
The LCP is intended to balance the needs of all stakeholders, including educators, parents, students and community members and the ongoing need for Districts to formally plan to return to school in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic without requiring two plans (an LCAP and and LCP).
Fiscal Implication:
$8,599,947 from federal, state and local funding sources.
Recommended Action:
None
