MEDIA ADVISORY

LCAP Workshops Beginning this Month

What: Community engagement workshops on 2020-21 budget

When: See schedule

Where: High schools throughout the district (see schedule)

Fresno Unified will host a number of community engagement workshops beginning Jan. 8 and extending through February. The district invites the community to the meetings as it begins to develop next school year’s fiscal budget. This effort is part of the districts’ Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP). Workshops give parents and community members an opportunity to share ideas regarding potential budget investments and programs that are designated to support students and improve student achievement. Regional workshops begin Jan. 8 and run through Feb. 20. Each participating adult will receive an admission ticket to the Chaffee Zoo. Childcare, translation and dinner will be provided.

“We hope our community will take the time to attend one of the workshops being held throughout our district and share their thoughts on how to best invest in our students to help them reach their full potential,” said Superintendent Bob Nelson.

All workshops start at 5:30 p.m. For more information on LCAP, go to fresnounified.org
