Annual Local Control and Accountability Plan Update Survey

Last spring, Hemet Unified School District engaged the community to determine our district’s funding and academic priorities, as a result of the state's transition to a Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF). Based on your feedback through surveys and school site meetings, we established goals that are reflective of the state's eight priority areas. These goals are now the foundation of our school and district work for the upcoming years. To ensure these goals continue to represent our work and priorities, Hemet USD will revisit these priorities with you annually.

Your continued participation and feedback is critical in this process and will help guide our future planning and progress. Please take the following five minutes to share your thoughts.

Thank you,
Barry Kayrell
Superintendent
