LCFF APPLICATION. CLICK HERE TO HELP US MAXIMIZE OUR FUNDING FOR OUR SCHOOL PROGRAMS.
FILL OUT OUR LCFF APPLICATION FORM TO PROTECT FUNDING FOR OUR SCHOOL.
Thank you to all the families who have taken the time to fill out the following LCFF form. This helps our school maximize our district funding. In 2018-2019 we had 93% of our families complete this form. Last year we only had 88% of our families complete this form and as a result of -5% of parents not turning in the form, we lost $40,000. Currently, we have received only 55% of these forms and in danger of losing much more funding.
