(2)
In developing
the template for the local control and accountability plan and annual update to the local control and accountability plan, the state board shall ensure that school districts, county offices of education, and charter schools track and report their progress annually on all state priorities, including the applicable metrics specified within each state priority and, for charter schools, in accordance with Section 47606.5.
(3)
For each action and budgeted expenditure provided to all pupils on a districtwide, countywide, or charterwide basis pursuant to Section 42238.07, one or more specific metrics to monitor the intended outcome of that action and budgeted expenditure shall be identified.

The instructions developed by the state board pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (d) shall specify that school districts, county offices of education, and charter schools should prioritize
the focus of the goals, specific actions, and related expenditures included within the local control and accountability plan and annual update to the local control and accountability plan within one or more state priorities. The instructions shall further specify that school districts, county offices of education, and charter schools shall consider their performance on the state and local indicators, including their locally collected and reported data for the local indicators, that are included in the California School Dashboard authorized in Section 52064.5 in determining whether and how to prioritize the goals, specific actions, and related expenditures included within the local control and accountability plan and annual update to the local control and accountability plan.
(5)
The instructions developed by the state board pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (d) shall specify that school districts, county offices of education, and charter
schools that have a numerically significant English learner pupil subgroup shall include specific actions in the local control and accountability plan related to, at a minimum, the language acquisition programs, as defined in Section 306, provided to pupils and professional development activities specific to English learners, including long-term English learners.
(6)
The instructions developed by the state board pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (d) shall specify that beginning with local control and accountability plans for the 2024–25 school year, school districts, county offices of education, and charter schools shall include specific actions in the local control and accountability plan to address all instances where a school or pupil group within a local educational agency, or a pupil group within a school, receives the lowest performance level on one or more state indicators on the California School Dashboard. The results of the
California School Dashboard in the year preceding the adoption of the local control and accountability plan shall determine the instances of low performance that shall apply for the three-year period in which the local control and accountability plan is in effect pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 52060 or subdivision (b) of Section 52066, as applicable.
(7)
The instructions developed by the state board pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (d) shall specify that beginning with local control and accountability plans for the 2024–25 school year, local educational agencies receiving funding pursuant to Section 42238.024 shall include focused goals for each school generating funding pursuant to Section 42238.024. The focused goals shall address both of the following:
(A)
All pupil groups that have the lowest performance level on one or more state indicators on the California
School Dashboard pursuant to Section 52064.5.
(B)
Any underlying issues in the credentialing, subject matter preparation, and retention of the school’s educators, if applicable.
(8)
The instructions developed by the state board pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (d) shall specify that school districts, county offices of education, and charter schools shall change actions that have not proven effective over a three-year period. This shall include a description of changes that explain the reasons for lack of progress and how any changes to the action will result in a new or strengthened approach.
(f)
(1)
Except as provided in subdivision (g), the state board shall adopt the template pursuant to the requirements of the Administrative Procedure Act (Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 11340)
of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code). The state board may adopt emergency regulations for purposes of implementing this section. The adoption of emergency regulations shall be deemed an emergency and necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety, or general welfare.
(2)
Notwithstanding paragraph (1), the state board may adopt or revise the template in accordance with the requirements of the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act (Article 9 (commencing with Section 11120) of Chapter 1 of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code). When adopting the template pursuant to the requirements of the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act, the state board shall present the template at a regular meeting and may only take action to adopt the template at a subsequent regular meeting. This paragraph shall become inoperative on January 31, 2019.
(g)
Notwithstanding subdivision (f), revisions of the template for the local control and accountability plan and annual update to the local control and accountability plan necessary to implement Assembly Bill 1808 and Assembly Bill 1840 of the 2017–18 Regular Session, legislation passed during the 2019–20 Regular Session, or Assembly Bill 130 of the 2021–22 Regular Session shall not be subject to the requirements of the Administrative Procedure Act (Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 11340) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code). The state board may make necessary revisions to the template in accordance with the requirements of the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act (Article 9 (commencing with Section 11120) of Chapter 1 of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code).
(h)
Revisions to a template shall be approved by the state board by January 31 before the fiscal year during which the template is to be
used by a school district, county superintendent of schools, or charter school.
(i)
In developing the template, the state board shall take steps to minimize duplication of effort at the local level to the greatest extent possible. The adoption of a template or evaluation rubric by the state board shall not create a requirement for a governing board of a school district, a county board of education, or a governing body of a charter school to submit a local control and accountability plan to the state board, unless otherwise required by federal law. The Superintendent shall not require a local control and accountability plan to be submitted by a governing board of a school district or the governing body of a charter school to the state board. The state board may adopt a template or evaluation rubric that would authorize a school district or a charter school to submit to the state board only the sections of the local control and accountability
plan required by federal law.
(j)
Notwithstanding any other law, the templates developed by the state board pursuant to this section, as it read on June 30, 2018, shall continue in effect until the state board adopts a new template pursuant to subdivision (b) on or before January 31, 2020, except that the state board may adopt revisions to those templates pursuant to subdivision (g) that are necessary to implement Assembly Bill 1808 of the 2017–18 Regular Session or meet federal requirements.
