Metrics Aligned to Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) State Priorities

LCFF requires districts to create annual goals in the LCAP and set expected annual measurable objectives (EAMOs) to monitor progress toward those goals. Progress must be based on identified metrics, which may be quantitative or qualitative. There are specific required elements for measuring progress within the eight priority areas. LEAs may also include a variety of locally determined metrics when creating their LCAP.

  • Priority 1: Basic Services

    • Percentage of properly credentialed teachers.
    • Student access to standards-aligned instructional materials.
    • Facilities in good repair.

    Priority 2: Implementation of State Standard 

    • Implementation of the academic content and performance standards adopted by the State Board.
    • How the programs and services will enable English learners to access the CCSS and the ELD standards for purposes of gaining academic content knowledge and English language proficiency.

    Priority 3: Parent Involvement

    • Efforts the school district makes to seek parent input in making decisions for the school district and each individual school site.
    • How the school district will promote parental participation in programs for unduplicated pupils.
    • How the school district will promote parental participation in programs for individuals with exceptional needs.

    Priority 4: Pupil Achievement

    Statewide assessments.

    • The percentage of pupils who have successfully completed courses that satisfy the requirements for entrance to the University of California and the California State University. (A-G completion rate).

    • Percentage of pupils who have successfully completed A-G and CTE course requirements.
    • Percentage of English learners making progress toward English proficiency as measured by state language proficiency assessment (e.g., English Learner Progress Indicator).
    • English learner reclassification rate.
    • Percentage who pass AP exam with score of 3 or higher.
    • Participation and demonstration of college preparedness (e.g., EAP).
