The state funding model for K-12 education, known as the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF), went into effect in 2013-14. Although the model has been in effect for a relatively short period of time, it has had a tremendous positive impact in helping California school districts get financially healthy again. After years of repeated declining revenue, the new funding formula reverses this trend. The adopted 2015-16 CJUSD General Fund Budget includes $249.5 million in total revenue. This is a 57% increase from 2012-13, which was the final year of pre-LCFF funding. This additional revenue helps CJUSD restore programs that were eliminated in recent years as well as gear up for Common Core implementation. We are able to do this with a balanced budget and with reserves that will help us maintain financial stability.
