Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP)
The LCAP is a tool for local educational agencies to set goals, plan actions, and leverage resources to meet those goals to improve student outcomes. The LCAP is a three-year plan that describes the goals, actions, services, and expenditures to support positive student outcomes that address state and local priorities. The LCAP provides an opportunity for LEAs (county office of education [COE], school districts and charter schools) to share their stories of how, what, and why programs and services are selected to meet their local needs.

LCAP Survey
Students, Staff, Parents, and Community Members, we need your help in inform SUHSD Local Control Accountability Plan in support student achievement, wellbeing, parent and community engagement and our systems of support.
In 2023-2024, Sweetwater Union High School District received approximately $110 million to support our students to achieve academically, be supported emotionally, and ensure schools maintain a healthy environment for learning. The way these funds are used must include the input of all community partners, specially YOU!
Please review how the district has used these funds under the 4 Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) Goals below. After each Goal, please write or list some suggestions as to how we can use these funds next year as we develop our 24/25 LCAP. We want to ensure we capture your thoughts and suggestions based on the needs you see at your school and community.
