Need help getting your school or district to fund the CADA convnention?

School site councils allocate funds for professional development from local site budgets. LCAP is a three-year plan that describes the goals, actions, services, and expenditures to support positive student outcomes that address state and local priorities. The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) added $15.3 billion in assistance to California's K-12 schools to combat the pandemic and the recession. You may also check with your principal or district office for access to funds from the following sources: Tobacco Use Prevention Education (TUPE) program, Title IV (Drug-Free Schools) School Improvement Funds, Title 1 (under the category of Safe and Orderly Environment), Title V (Innovated Programs), Pupil Retention Block Grant, or Associated Student Body funds. According to FCMAT's website: if district board policy states that the CADA Convention is an acceptable expenditure, even though students, are not attending and the students agree on the expenditure before it occurs, then ASB funds can pay for you to attend the CADA Convention.!

Can ASB Funds Legally Pay for Activity Directors to attend the CADA Conference? See the response FCMAT gives on this.
