School Site Council & ELAC
School Site Council (SSC)
As a Title I school, Wilshire Park Elementary has the opportunity to help economically disadvantaged students get the educational support they need to succeed in school. The purpose of the School Site Council (SSC) is to develop a Single Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA) with input from all stakeholders based on recommendations from CEAC and ELAC.
School Site Council approves use of categorical funds to expand educational opportunities for students while the budget is reviewed regularly
English Learners Advisory Committee (ELAC)
The English Learners Advisory Committee is focused on enabling programs to help students become proficient in English. The Committee is primarily made up of parents of EBs (Emergent Bilingual) students, with the goal of getting the students reclassified once they fulfill their target overall scores on the ELPAC assessment. ELAC makes budget and program recommendations to School Site Council (SSC) on how to spend funds designated for EB education.
For more information on school governance, please go to the LAUSD Parent Community Services Branch.

Los Angeles Unified School District
Wilshire Park Elementary
Dear Parents and Guardians of Wilshire Park Elementary School,
The Los Angeles Unified School District approved a new LAUSD Title I Parent and Family Engagement Policy in June of 2018, which was developed with the meaningful consultation of Title I parents and family members from each Region. The policy is summarized below. A hard copy of the entire policy may be requested from the main office.
Summary of the Los Angeles Unified School District Title I Parent and Family Engagement Policy
- LAUSD will involve parents in the joint development of the LAUSD Local Educational Agency (LEA) Plan by inviting parents of Title I students to participate in Region Title I Parent Study Groups, in the District’s Title I Focus Group, and in school level activities related to the LAUSD LEA Plan, including program and budget development for categorical programs. The District will also invite parents to participate in special training to support their understanding of the LAUSD LEA Plan and the School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA).
- LAUSD, through the Office of Student, Family and Community Engagement (SFACE) and the Region Family and Community Engagement (FACE) staff, will provide the coordination, technical assistance, and other support necessary to assist and build the capacity of Title I schools in planning and implementing effective parent involvement activities to improve student academic achievement and school performance. Staff from SFACE and FACE will develop tools and curriculum and will provide training to school staff in the following areas:
- School Goals for Parent Engagement
- Parent Education Modules
- Parent and Family Center Improvement Program
- School Volunteer Program
- Building Relationships with Community Groups
- Staff Capacity-building Modules
- LAUSD will coordinate and integrate parent and family engagement strategies described in this policy with strategies used in programs operated by other LAUSD departments, some of which are listed below:
- Multilingual and Multicultural Education Division of Special Education
- Early Childhood Education
- Division of Instruction
- Student Health and Human Services
- Access, Equity and Acceleration
- Beyond the Bell
- Student Integration Services
- Through Region Title I Study Groups, LAUSD will conduct an annual evaluation of the content and effectiveness of the parent and family engagement policy in improving the academic quality of Title I schools, identifying the strategies to support successful engagement, the needs of parents and family members to assist with their children’s learning, and the barrier to greater parent participation in activities.
- LAUSD will use the findings under section D to design evidence-based strategies for more effective parent engagement and to revise, if necessary, the LAUSD Title I Parent and Family Engagement Policy.
- LAUSD will involve parents in the activities of Title I schools, ensuring that schools listen responsively to parents, welcome them as partners, and provide leadership and learning opportunities to them. LAUSD will ensure that parents and family members are knowledgeable about school and District programs, engagement opportunities, student and school performance data, parents’ rights and responsibilities, and how to support their children’s education.
If you are interested in learning more about the annual review of this policy that takes place in each Region, please contact the Office of SFACE at (213) 481-3350 or email [email protected].
Sincerely,
Leighanne Creary, Principal

Reviewed the budget handbook, reviewed Title 1 budget allocations and things that we can purchase as a Title 1 school. Majority of our budget comes from Title 1 fund and it is very restricted on how to use it.
We use 7SO46 and 7EO46 and we cannot buy the ones that are blacked out.
SSC gets it done at the beginning of the year so that we don’t have to go back and forth to prove it every time. This is a Reference guide for doing the budget.
Reviewed the budget for Title 1 from last year.
Title 1 budget has increased from last year from $237,273 to $263,318.
Principal proposed Option 1 and Option 2 for the members to improve.
Reviewed the roles of the parent community reps.
General budget comes from the district, and the teacher’s absence determines the amount of money that we receive.
The difference between Option 1 and Option 2 is that Option 2 has the program called “STEM and More”, which is the program where instructors come once a week and teach lessons on STEM. We want students to expose to NGSS standards.
If we do STEM and More, and we pay for Title 1, we lose one of the TAs for next year.
We want to delete use of Reading Plus because 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades do not use it often and it is not worth it to purchase from the fund, so we want to get STEM and More.
We can vote on the Option 1 with STEM and More $6720, Intervention $6968, cut out Reading Plus $6100, and we keep the 5 TAs, Lexia $6300 and Dreambox $4000.
Bob Morehouse made motion to approve the modified version of option 1.
Ms. Williams seconded it. A unanimous 7-0 vote was in favor to approve the modified version of option 1. Motion carried.
