Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) Application
All families play a critical role in ensuring our Â鶹ÊÓƵ City Unified schools are properly funded. You can do your part by completing the required Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) application.
Regardless of your income, the LCFF Application must be completed by all families. This is because a large portion of the funds received from the state are based on the socio-economic status of our students. Collecting this information from all families will ensure SCUSD schools receive the maximum amount of state funding possible.
This important extra funding is used to provide more comprehensive programs to ensure that all students are given an equal opportunity to be grade level ready and graduate with the greatest number of postsecondary choices from the widest array of options.
You and your school community give input into how this funding is used through the Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP).
The LCFF application will be available through October
31, 2024.

School Site Communications
Your school’s principal and teachers may use additional platforms for school and classroom communications. Back to School Night is a great opportunity to connect with your student’s teachers and make sure you know how to stay in touch with each of them. You can also reach out to your school if you’re unsure of what platforms they are using for family outreach.
District Communications
You may receive a variety of communications from SCUSD, mostly through ParentSquare. We send out a family newsletter every other week on Wednesdays, called the Sac City Scroll, which contains general information and updates happening within the community and our schools. We also send out budget and negotiations updates or major announcements on occasion. You can also visit our website’s Latest News to see these announcements, updates and newsletters.
