What is the Consolidated Application?

An Agreement by each LEA governing and the California State Board of Education on the use of Categorical Funds

❖ Part I is submitted each June
❖ Part II is submitted each February

The CDE uses the ConApp to distribute categorical funds from various state and federal programs to LEAs

School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA)

Each school makes their own plan that describes how they will use their categorical funding (such as Title I and Title III)

Parents are a part of this process at the SSC and ELAC meetings

What Educators Need to Do

Educators develop relationships with students, and throughout their school culture, to achieve desired student outcomes. In this way, educators reduce the variability of the learning experience and ensure greater equity for all students.
