Priorities for the Plan

1) LAUSD Instructional Priorities

• Reduce overcrowding and multi-track, year round schedules in K-12

• Serve students in Special Education

• Provide Early Education programs

• Serve K-12 at-risk students in alternative programs

• Provide career-technical education and specialized program for K-12 students

• Provide support services to K-12 and adult students

• Comply with Prop 39 Charter School space requirements

2) LAUSD General Fund cost savings

3) Community based partnerships

7

Master Plan Analysis

• The Closed School Plan provides information regarding

• Campus facilities status

• Cost benefit analysis

• Project funding viability

• Proposed timelines to execute projects

• Costs associated with re-opening, re-purposing or converting a closed school to a new use have significant costs due to requirements to meet DTSC, CEQA, and DSA standards

• Proposed projects that bring added value and cost savings to the District are favorably recommended
