2 District Overview

The Foothill-De Anza Community College District consists of two colleges located in the high-tech heart of Silicon Valley, just four miles from and 30 miles south of San Francisco. The district is part of the California Community Colleges system, which has 112 colleges in 72 districts serving more than 2.3 million students, making it the largest system of higher education in the . The mission of the California Community Colleges is to provide transfer, vocational and basic skills education for students of all ages and abilities, and to advance California’s global economic growth and competitiveness.

The mission of the Foothill-De Anza Community College District is student success. We accomplish this by providing access to a dynamic learning environment that fosters excellence, opportunity and innovation in meeting the diverse educational and career goals of our students and communities.

A seven-member board of trustees governs the district. Voters from communities within the district’s boundaries elect five trustees and two student trustees serve in an advisory capacity. The district has a long history of electing professional, policy driven board members. Encompassing the Santa Clara County communities of Cupertino, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills, Mountain View, Palo Alto, Stanford, Sunnyvale and parts of Saratoga and San Jose, the district has a population of approximately 500,000 residents. More than 1 million students have attended the colleges since the opening of Foothill College in 1958 and De Anza College in 1967.

The district’s 63,000 students, and 470 full-time and 1,000 part-time faculty members make up a dynamic and successful community of scholars supported by nearly 500 dedicated classified professional staff and 115 talented supervisors and administrators. Academic excellence thrives in a vibrant multicultural community created by students, faculty and staff from a diverse mix of racial, ethnic and cultural backgrounds. Foothill-De Anza has a long and productive tradition of participatory governance. The Chancellor’s Advisory Council, comprised of faculty, staff and student leaders, is the main governance group that advises the chancellor on institutional planning, budgeting, and policy and procedures.

Foothill-De Anza enjoys strong support from a community that values and respects quality education. In 1999 and 2006, voters overwhelmingly approved district bond measures that have generated approximately $750 million for new construction, modernization and other capital improvements, including new technology, resulting in significant upgrades to the campuses. While much new construction has been completed, the district currently is building a new education center in Sunnyvale and planning a new district office building and boardroom on the Foothill College campus.

Local residents also serve on the district’s audit and finance committee, its bond oversight committee and are active participants in its non-profit foundation, which raises between $3 million and $5 million annually for program support at the colleges and direct student support, such as scholarships, book vouchers and internships.

The district regularly reviews its record of equity and diversity in employment and believes that culturally diverse teams yield more creative, synergistic and effective outcomes.

Both Foothill College and De Anza College have equity plans that unite the college behind closing achievement gaps across racial and ethnic groups, as well as for veterans and foster youth. The colleges work closely with the district Office of Institutional Research & Planning to identify obstacles to student success and how to overcome them. All major planning efforts address student equity, including program review, resource allocation, accreditation, and strategic and educational master planning.

The board of the district’s fundraising auxiliary, the Foothill-De Anza Foundation, has identified student equity, opportunity and success as funding priorities.

8 District Budget

The Foothill-De Anza Community College District has a long history of fiscal strength. The recent “Great Recession” created significant fiscal challenges for the district. Yet with careful planning and prudent fiscal practices, Foothill-De Anza was able to successfully manage state budget cuts and maintain healthy fund balances to support operations during fiscally volatile times. The district relied primarily on unrestricted ending fund balances to cover operating deficits experienced over the past two years. In fiscal year 2013-14, revenues exceeded expenses and the unrestricted general fund balance increased slightly.

For 2014-15, the Board of Trustees approved a budget with a $2 million structural deficit. However, the district also reported a $44 million fund balance and specifically identified $16 million to close any structural budget deficits while the colleges and district planned for adjustments to balance their budgets. However, the district has postponed plans for any additional budget cuts in the immediate future because of our substantial one-time reserves and increased state funding for community colleges in 2014-15. Further state funding increases are proposed for 2015-16.

When and if Foothill-De Anza will need to make any new budget cuts to close the $2 million structural deficit will depend on the outcome of the state budget process for 2015-16 and how much increased revenue is allocated to the California Community Colleges system.

The past several years have been challenging for all community college districts in our state, requiring difficult adjustments. Despite these challenges, Foothill-De Anza has remained fiscally sound and continued to effectively serve more than 63,000 students (31,000 FTES) annually with the highest quality instructional programs and student services.

There are many well-documented fiscal hurdles for community colleges to overcome in the years ahead, but Foothill-De Anza is well positioned to take advantage of any new state financial support and to weather the inevitable fiscal storms on the near or distant horizon.
