Authority and scopeState funding condition for participation, not a universal LEA submission

In Plain Language: Confirm eligible schoolsites and their planning or implementation status, then complete the CDE CCSPP opt-in for 2027–28 by June 1, 2027.

Why this matters

A site’s inclusion in a local plan does not establish a completed state funding-participation submission.

Primary ownership

Community-schools lead, fiscal services and superintendent or authorized representative

Required distinctions and controls

  • Use the CDE platform’s eligible-site list and current eligibility rules. The CDE FAQ includes an existing-implementation-grantee eligibility pathway, including a nonclassroom-based charter exception; do not use a blanket exclusion.
  • Keep new sites, current implementation grantees and transitions to ongoing funding distinct. Confirm the participation instructions for each site.
  • An R-TAC or county office can provide assistance. Its local preparation schedule does not replace the state opt-in date.

From the eligible-site list to a submitted 2027–28 CCSPP opt-in: the SDLA ITO workflow

The opt-in is a funding condition for participation, so each site's status must be decided and approved. This SDLA ITO (Input, Transformation, Output) graphic shows how authorized platform access, CDE instructions, and the eligible-site and grant records become the reconciled site list, the approved status decisions, and the opt-in confirmation.

SDLA ITO: eleven steps from authorized platform access, CDE instructions, and the eligible-site and grant records, through matching sites to CDS identifiers, reviewing status, completing attestations, and approval, to the reconciled site list, the approved status decisions, and the opt-in confirmation.
Read down each column, then move to the next: Input identifies what to collect; Transformation covers matching sites to CDS identifiers, reviewing status, completing attestations, and approval; Output covers the reconciled site list, the approved status decisions, and the opt-in confirmation. Submit by June 1, 2027.

Recommended LEA workflow

  1. Obtain authorized platform access and the current CDE instructions.
  2. Match the eligible-site list to CDS identifiers and the LEA’s grant/participation records.
  3. Review each site’s proposed planning or implementation status with site and fiscal owners.
  4. Complete required contacts, program information and attestations and obtain authorized approval.
  5. Submit before the state deadline and retain the final site list and confirmation.

Evidence to retain

  • Eligible-site reconciliation
  • Approved participation/status decisions
  • Required attestations
  • Opt-in confirmation
