District English Learner Advisory Committee --- November 6, 2026

The District English Learner Advisory Committee (DELAC) of the San Bernardino City Unified School District (SBCUSD) met on November 6, 2026. The main procurement-related discussion was an update on the district’s Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) and its budget implementation. Staff reported that the county approved the plan on July 14 and described spending progress as of November 2: 68% of funds for gifted and advanced programs, 81% for the International Baccalaureate program, and 86% for English learner achievement activities had been spent; several other actions were reported at 100%. The presenter also discussed California’s Equity Multiplier funding for designated schools and said planning and community input for the 2027–28 plan would continue. She referenced roughly $400 million in her office’s funding and a district budget exceeding $1 billion; the transcript also mentions $200 million, but its specific context is unclear.

Other topics included lottery-based secondary school programs, application and eligibility procedures, the Future Leaders camp, family support, and student academic progress. The committee was encouraged to ask about school-level spending priorities and goals during site advisory meetings. No contracts, vendor selections, bids, or purchasing approvals were identified. A motion was requested to approve the prior meeting minutes, but the transcript does not capture the motion’s disposition.
