Setting priorities and goals, members of the administrative team at Escalon Unified School District sought input from the public – their ‘stakeholders’ – at a pair of public meetings over the last couple of weeks. Specifically, the district’s LCAP, Local Control Accountability Plan, was called into question, with the district looking for suggestions on how best to spend the money received to get the desired outcomes for students at all grade levels. State priorities, said Assistant Superintendent Joel Johannsen, include conditions of learning, pupil outcomes and engagement – including parental involvement and school climate – and within each priority there are ranked goals.
