California is in the midst of a unique political and funding opportunity to fundamentally transform public education and ensure a whole-child, whole-community approach to effective teaching and learning. In 2021, the California legislature approved a $2.8 billion investment in community schools; this was accompanied by a $2.3 billion for expanded learning, $2.7 billion for universal transitional kindergarten, and $4.4 billion for student mental health, among other initiatives.
While this massive investment is long-awaited, it is also overwhelming! CSLX offers numerous free, publicly available resources to support LEAs, community, and municipal organizations access CCSPP funding and strong community school implementation. Together, with our partners, we are developing community schools implementation tools, along with cultivating multiple professional learning communities. If you are interested in joining the conversation, please reach out.
The CCSPP Implementation Grant Request for Proposals (RFA) was recently released. But it's important to remember CCSPP funding can absolutely set the stage for whole-school transformation, but only if you approach it with an actual plan for transformation.
