Welcome to the 2022-23 school year! We’re gearing up to provide the most up-to-date information to support your Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) implementation and support.
August is a busy time! Schools are either in session or preparing for the hustle and bustle of returning students and staff. Our team at the San Diego County Office of Education (SDCOE) is focused on reviewing, gaining clarification, and approving district LCAPs. Additionally, we are preparing for upcoming professional learning sessions and informational workshops.
SDCOE is committed to supporting LEAs in developing and maximizing the impact of their plans. This monthly communication is intended for anyone who is involved in the LCAP process. Information will be provided to keep readers up-to-date with recent legislation and deadlines, and to support technical assistance. Check out SDCOE’s new website and our updated LCAP webpages for up-to-date information!

Social and Emotional Support in Distance Learning
Welcome back! We hope that you have taken time to rest, refill your cup, and spend meaningful time with friends, family, and self. Our team is growing, and we will be announcing our Social Emotional Learning (SEL) specialist soon. This new team member will lead our implementation work across the county and lead our Community of Practice (CoP). One of our favorite resources for introducing SEL to both adults and students is the 3 Signature Practice Playbook, and our friends at Washoe County have put together a helpful website with explanatory resources. As we onboard our new team member, be sure to visit our site and sign up for the listserv. Our first CoP will be Sept. 14 from 2:30 to 4 p.m., so save the date!
