CABRILLO SCHOOL SITE COUNCIL
CABRILLO SCHOOL SITE COUNCIL
2026 - 2027
The Cabrillo High School School Site Council ("SSC") is an elected group made up of the principal, teachers, school staff, parents, and students who work together to help improve the school. California law gives the SSC specific authority to review school needs, develop and approve the School Plan for Student Achievement, and approve how certain funds, such as Title I and LCFF funds, in that plan will be used. Each member is elected for a two-year term. Officers are elected members who are then electe by other members to serve a one-year term as the officer. The SSC does not run the entire school, and the principal and district still have authority over many day-to-day and personnel decisions. However, when state law gives the SSC a specific responsibility, that role cannot simply be replaced by the principal or district. The SSC meets several times throughout the school year. All meetings are open to the public.

SSC Funding Explained
The SSC does not receive its own separate pot of money. Instead, it helps decide how Title I and LCFF funds assigned to the school should be used to meet student needs through the School Plan for Student Achievement ("SPSA"). The SSC reviews needs, develops and approves the SPSA, and considers the spending included in that plan.
Title I Funding
Title I is federal funding intended to help schools with higher numbers of students from low-income families improve student achievement and close achievement gaps. At a Title I schoolwide program, the funding must support the school’s identified educational needs and be included in the school planning process. Title I spending generally must be reasonable, necessary, and connected to improving educational outcomes
LCFF Funding
he Local Control Funding Formula ("LCFF") is California’s main system for funding public schools. Schools and districts receive funding based largely on student enrollment, with additional funding connected to students with greater needs, including low-income students, English learners, and foster youth. Districts have flexibility in how LCFF money is used, but spending must support the goals and requirements of California’s accountability system
