LCFF Implementation: Building Capacity to Realize the Promises
District Leadership
Policy and practice brief from the California Collaborative on District Reform
This November 2014 policy brief highlights new areas of opportunity for school improvement. The report states that under LCFF, central office teams accustomed to implementing categorical programs must evaluate and design strategies that are based on evidence of effectiveness and alignment with district goals, not with state mandates. Furthermore, LCFF calls for county offices to provide technical assistance to any district that request it and to all districts for which LCAPs are not approved. The conclusion states, as the state implements LCFF, attention to the capacity needs across the system will be essential for achieving success with the new funding system.
