Big Valley Joint Unified School District

The 2025-26 Local Control and Accountability Plan for Big Valley Joint Unified School District focuses on several key goals: creating a positive school climate to promote student wellness and parent involvement, ensuring students have access to a broad course of study aligned with California's Common Core State Standards, and closing achievement gaps to prepare students for high school, college, and careers. The plan outlines specific actions, such as enhancing communication, providing library materials, supporting summer school, offering PBIS incentives, and implementing social-emotional learning PD. It also addresses the needs of unduplicated students (English Learners, foster youth, and low-income students) through targeted interventions and resources.
