The Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) is part of the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF). It requires each school district to engage with parents, educators, employees, and the community to establish plans that describe the district's vision for students, annual goals, and specific actions to achieve these goals. The LCAP focuses on eight state priority areas, including access to qualified teachers and resources, implementation of academic standards, parent involvement, student achievement, student engagement, school climate, college and career preparation, and other student outcomes. The plan also demonstrates how the district's budget supports these goals and assesses the effectiveness of the strategies used.

The document discusses revisions to the classified hourly salary schedule, including percentage increases, adjustments to health and welfare caps, and changes to longevity rates. It also mentions the addition and reclassification of various positions, such as Mental Health Clinician, Family and Youth Community Liaison, and others. Additionally, it references compliance with the Public Employees' Pension Reform Act and adjustments to minimum wage.

The document is a certification for the 2025-26 LCAP Federal Addendum for Placer Hills Union Elementary. It confirms that the current LCAP has been approved by the local governing board. The certification is required for the LEA to receive initial funding under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA).
