Webcast details

Thursday, August 8, 2019
12:05 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. PT

About the program

The Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) was enacted in 2013–14 to simplify California’s school finance system, revamp district and school accountability, and provide additional funding for high-need students. How has the LCFF affected educational resources across districts and schools? PPIC research fellow Julien Lafortune will outline the findings of a new report and a panel of experts will discuss the challenges and opportunities of targeting LCFF funding and improving educational outcomes for the state’s highest-need students.

This research was supported with funding from the Dirk and Charlene Kabcenell Foundation and the Stuart Foundation.
