This Local Control and Accountability Plan outlines how Brittan Elementary School District will utilize state funds during the 2026-2027 school year to improve student outcomes and address performance gaps. The plan's primary focus areas are: providing high-quality education through enhanced ELA and Math instruction and targeted interventions for all students, especially socioeconomically disadvantaged students and those with disabilities; and promoting student engagement while maintaining a safe, healthy, and welcoming learning environment through reduced chronic absenteeism and strengthened behavioral supports. The intended vision is to prepare all students for success in high school, college, and career.
