oversight
College and Career Counselors and Centers
LCAP Performance Metrics • Final progress determination of a number of LCAP
metrics will need to wait until the school-year culminates, for example, graduation rates.
Three LCAP measures are available:
• Student attendance is 1.2% above the 2014-15 year-end target of 96.3 %.
• Suspension target is set at a .5% reduction, and for this fall is reported as a favorable reduction of .8%.
