You now have another opportunity to comment on a second draft of the 
LCAP for Berkeley Unified School District 
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010U9ldyl8anD_Bulete-BS48k-IAh_zSKfEQqsC_ZwUw2DBwLozTFcB2Qae26KJTJZYPOeXmMCnw69D-KxTJZ7DacyGt7YG5aN4b7b55F-d2ZwZcL-gW0m5svqYjIi_pGAYCXmB2hUYTctOTA4gltaUmtSSVLpSdeGX0vD3iBsr_a88BwRlw1MaTjbYhu1FtQ-E0EqHzlK99Uf8S9dIrV8Had4XAjftGNK35Dryuc5TZWCTDy7EDGGxjNSAVzFdjRmhmnvdAE8OwCvktvCSEtl5o4icjyfcEqu1SoKlU5isY=&c=FgYLxxY7c7xq7UQmqmE9xdXShSNABfaU7qwvlBAMfPDNC1GnvVs68g==&ch=PyUWf9qei5YDuBTWD0pcOQwiIxsjZciB1QuGDcutrVCPWxvu0iA45Q==>.

Thank you to all those who have provided comments on the first draft of 
the LCAP. The Superintendent and Board have received valuable feedback, 
and are in the process of reviewing public comments, as well as those 
submitted by the Parent Advisory Committee and District English Learner 
Advisory Committee.

The second LCAP draft 
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010U9ldyl8anD_Bulete-BS48k-IAh_zSKfEQqsC_ZwUw2DBwLozTFcB2Qae26KJTJZYPOeXmMCnw69D-KxTJZ7DacyGt7YG5aN4b7b55F-d2ZwZcL-gW0m5svqYjIi_pGAYCXmB2hUYTctOTA4gltaUmtSSVLpSdeGX0vD3iBsr_a88BwRlw1MaTjbYhu1FtQ-E0EqHzlK99Uf8S9dIrV8Had4XAjftGNK35Dryuc5TZWCTDy7EDGGxjNSAVzFdjRmhmnvdAE8OwCvktvCSEtl5o4icjyfcEqu1SoKlU5isY=&c=FgYLxxY7c7xq7UQmqmE9xdXShSNABfaU7qwvlBAMfPDNC1GnvVs68g==&ch=PyUWf9qei5YDuBTWD0pcOQwiIxsjZciB1QuGDcutrVCPWxvu0iA45Q==> has 
been published ahead of the May 14th Board meeting. This draft includes 
revisions and clarifications for many of the goals, services and 
activities in the plan, and also includes a background introduction and 
executive summary of the Plan which provides more context for the plan.

The public comment period will close at *4:00 p.m. on May 15th*, with 
the exception of the Parent Advisory Committee and District English 
Learner Advisory Committee, who will discuss the plan that evening.

*Important Note about the Purpose of the LCAP*
The Local Control & Accountability Plan is mandated under the new 
funding formula for K-12 public education in California. The plan 
includes a focus on identifying effective programs, services, and 
practices to serve the needs of low income, English learners, and foster 
youth in our schools. The plan must also address certain state 
priorities for all students. The LCAP is not a comprehensive strategic 
plan for Berkeley Unified School District, but rather a subset of 
broader district goals.
