Budget Planning 2024-2025

  • The school budget must be based on the assessed needs of participating students as determined in the comprehensive needs assessment and detailed in the consolidated school plan to improve student achievement. The most efficient use of resources which support the plan and students' access to the core curriculum should be the rule. The budget should demonstrate a clear relationship between the planned supplemental instructional program and the planned expenditures. Schools are advised to restructure budget expenditures if students are not showing signs of academic improvement.

In addition to the Handbook, we encourage schools to visit the Federal and State Education Programs (FSEP) website for access to tools designed to support the analysis of data and the identification of root causes and evidence-based interventions.

Regional Title I Coordinators and English Learner Coordinators along with staff in the Federal and State Education Programs (FSEP) and Multilingual Multicultural Education Department (MMED) offices are available to provide assistance to schools on developing schools plans that maximize resources to best support English learners and students not yet proficient on California content standards.

Finally, we welcome your comments and suggestions on how we can better support you in your efforts to ensure our students are well on their way to being college and career ready.

Please check the FSEP website throughout the school year for any updates to the Program and Budget Handbook.
