District stakeholders provide input on District goals

Lyceum strengths

District administrators, principals, teachers, parents and students came together for a day of collaboration Feb. 3 at the annual Lyceum held in the District Office Board Room.

The event is an opportunity for all of the District’s stakeholders to share their input on how the District is doing overall and how it can continue to improve. Upwards of 60 people spent the day appraising the District’s goals for the year, strategies for meeting those goals and progress being made.

Participants reviewed current goals and proposed goals and related actions for the 2016-17 District Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP). The LCAP describes the school district’s overall vision for student achievement, annual goals and specific actions the district will take to achieve the vision and goals.
