New budget numbers announced yesterday - updated 

Highlights - High Attendance and enrollment ADA driving funding

Loss of one time funding and COLA lowered impacting the budget negatively. 

Able to retain 99% of ADA funding with strong student attendance. Sunsetting COVID funding streams are closing as well as a decrease in Cost of Living Adjustments (COLA) which will impact MP's financial future. The state May revised budget has set COLA at 2.3%, ADA funding is seeing a slight decrease per pupil. New funding streams include a Student Support, PD Discretionary Block Grant, Extended Learning Opportunity Program, and additional money per pupil for a TK student to teacher ratio of 10:1, which are all positive developments. Mission Prep has maintained its finance reserves and will weather the budget changes.

Literacy development is a major portion of LCAP goals and efforts, parent engagement and student voice has been another major component, teacher coaching in ELA will be extended into math curriculum instruction. Student social emotional learning has been a priority which includes reducing chronic absenteeism, student-led conferences, crisis teams and student clubs.

Kinder to 2nd grade ELA diagnostic tests show that they have made huge jumps over the school year and 70% of students are at or above grade level. Improving teacher practice is a big part of these gains. The next push is to fund additional supports and interventions for math k-8th grade. MP is 85% staffed for the next school year and continuing to hire vacant positions. MP's partnerships with Reach, TNTP and others will continue; new partnerships include BAM! (Brains & Motion) extended learning program, MEandMind for social emotional tracking, and Edgewood Counseling.
